This is really impressive for you to find me these links. Yes, they
are very helpful.But, could I have a more detail summary? Such as
chapter summary, since I want to read the summary instead of reading
the whole book. Thank you.

Dear ellipsis, 

I'm afraid that I've found no such summary of the book. If you have no
time to read the book, perhaps you ought to pay someone who could
summarize it for you.
