Compared to the full casebook, the Concise Edition is more than one-third shorter. However, the Concise Edition is a standalone casebook created especially for the abbreviated Accounting for Lawyers courses, not just a condensed version of the full version. The Concise Edition covers the field completely, albeit in a more condensed manner, and makes no reference to the full edition. The condensed edition includes some unique supplementary material intended to facilitate the introduction of several of the field's key topics, even though the text has been significantly reduced overall.
