The prompt

I'm reading a difficult book: [title, author]. Here is a chapter or section I'm struggling with: [paste the text you own or have access to]. Make it easier to understand without dumbing down the ideas: 1. A 5-line summary of what the section argues. 2. A plain-language walk-through, paragraph by paragraph, in short sentences and everyday words. Keep the author's meaning; don't add your own opinions. 3. A glossary of the hard terms, each explained in one line with a simple example. 4. Any references the author assumes I know (people, theories, events), each in one line. 5. 3 questions to check I really understood it. Reading level for the plain version: [e.g. a smart 15-year-old / a non-specialist adult]. Don't reproduce long passages of the original; quote only short phrases when needed. Where you're unsure what the author means, say so.
