Do you have a giant pile of books on your bedside table or in your e-reader that you've hardly touched? Companies are offering to boil non-fiction books down to a series of bullet points that you can absorb in around 15 minutes. Melanie Abbott tried it out and talked to Winifred Robinson. First broadcast on You & Yours, 28 August 2017.
