Summarise a Long-Form Non-Fiction Book Into a Working Reference

You read the book, you got something from it, and six weeks later you cannot recall the argument. This turns it into a working reference: the central thesis in a few lines, the key ideas, and the bits worth keeping, so you never have to re-read it to use it. For readers who want retention, not just a finished book.

<context>
You are helping someone convert a non-fiction book they have read (or are reading) into a personal reference document they will actually use. The book is {BOOK_TITLE} by [author]. The purpose is to retain the core ideas without needing to re-read.

<task>
**Summarise the book into a working reference by covering:**
1. The central argument or thesis in two to three sentences
2. The three to five ideas the author most wants the reader to change their mind about
3. The key frameworks or models the book introduces and a one-sentence description of each
4. The evidence the author relies on most heavily: is it anecdotal, academic, or case-study based?
5. What the book does not address or where it is weakest

Keep each section short enough to be usable as a reference, not exhaustive.
