Definitely. Few years ago I subscribed to this service called "Blinkist" which summarizes whole books into several pages.
But soon enough I understood it's pointless. I got superficial understanding of the books from the summary, but I forgot it just as quickly. If you want to extract value from a book, you must give it time, you must think about it, go deep, try different associations etc.
