Quick Facts:
Short Cuts from Safari Books Online are exclusive short-topic works produced by leading authors on subjects that are either too early in their life cycle or too specific to have entire books dedicated to the topic. Short Cuts provide deep coverage of a specific topic, usually in fewer than 100 pages.
Elements are the best elements of many books that are written on a particular topic, boiled down to approximately 4 – 8 pages in length.
Shorts are new works written about a particular topic and typically are 16 – 20 pages in length.
FT Press Delivers’ Elements and Shorts provide essential insights from the best business books and original writings by some of the leading business thinkers alive today such as Jim Champy, Brian Solis, Mark Zandi, Jon M. Huntsman, John Kao, Michael Abrashoff, and Seth Goldman.
