Want to read classics like Capitalism and Freedom or hot new items like Freakonomics but don’t have the time? The Road to Serfdom is available in cartoon form, and you can buy slick (and expensive) summaries of popular management books, but in general you’re out of luck.

Until now. WikiSummaries provides free book summaries that anyone can write and edit. It’s just getting off the ground so there aren’t many summaries yet; besides Capitalism and Freedom and Freakonomics there’s not much to interest the O&M reader (except maybe Good to Great). But it’s only a matter of time before the great books in organization and strategy, like this one, are included.
