The Thirteenth Edition of the Harbrace has, for the first time, a brief edition. The chapter order is the same as the one for the Harbrace College Handbook, Thirteenth Edition. We removed the exercises and reduced the length of the individual chapters. However, the coverage in the remaining chapters is more detailed than any other brief handbook, and the Harbrace College Handbook, Brief Thirteenth Edition has the physical characteristics you expect of a brief handbook -- comb binding and plastic tabs.
