What is Wikisum? When I was in graduate school several years ago, my friends and I would routinely share our reading notes with one another. Eventually, I dumped them into this site to make them more searchable and accessible. Initially, the site was an editable wiki (like Wikipedia). I found that the only edits came from spambots, though, so I eventually turned off the editing features. It is now a static website. Perhaps someday I can turn editing back on again. We'll see. In the meantime, you can use these summaries to benefit from the efforts of a previous generation of doctoral students.
