In summary you do need to read the details, You can't use the title or the summary to tell what the patent covers (as many people do).

Maybe it's my law school background, but I would never claim to know what a document covers or says without reading all of it, or at least without making sure I had found all of the relevant parts. Patent claims tend to move from the most general to the most specific as you read through the paragraphs of the document.
