I agree that flyleaf sounds like a bad idea.  In fact,
Dave's navigational steps that lead to choosing a book
in a bookstore is not a good guide to describing the
logical structure of the information.  As Tim says,
Summary or Abstract describes adequately what the information
means; how it used or arranged are aspects of application,
whether defined in the app interface, style sheet or user's
navigational actions.
