I studied this summary before my most recent interview. It's a little abstract (in terms of lacking motivation/examples) for those who don't have experience in the field, but if you read it enough times, you get a decent handle on the idea.

I don't have any experience in the field, but I did not find it too abstract. Rather not abstract enough. (But on the other hand, I am a mathematician, and know about relations in theory.)
