A shorter than the original source and in the researcher's words

Explanation:

The summary is an abridged version of the original source and in the researcher's own very words.

Summaries gives an over-arching perspective and excludes implicit details from a given text.

A summary should not be detailed and must avoid overt illustrations. They must capture the true essence of piece leaving out flowery details.

A summary should be lesser in length than the original piece. Any third party reader should immediately be able to grab the details of the original piece from the summary.
