Précis, abstract (8)
I believe the answer is:
synopsis
This clue is a double definition.
'precis' is the first definition.
(I know that precis can be written as synopsis)
'abstract' is the second definition.
(I know that abstract can be written as synopsis)
(Other definitions for synopsis that I've seen before include "sketch" , "Summary - brief outline" , "Precis or summary" , "Pr?cis, abstract" , "General summary" .)
