    "Tacky" -Kietz
I received a brochure for this today:

www.summary.com

The featured book/summary was:

I can't remember if it was actually revealed that RP read Jack Welch books or if it was just an exaggeration stemming from the whole "2 books a week" thing. 

These summaries look like a hell of a deal.  You can read them a lot faster than the book, they're 1/3 the price, and I'm guessing you can get more talking points than just reading the inside flaps of the real book.

Oh Ronald is a HUGE consumer of the managment book summaries....especially Jack Welch.  He tosses around Jeffrey Immelt quotes as if they were campaign buttons.
