Abridged/unabridged editions - difference?

[edit]

The vast majority of the printed versions available for purchase seem to be the abridged versions. Comparing them against the unabridged versions the chapters seems to be all there but they are about half as long. I can't seem to find anything online that explains what has been cut - anyone know anything further? Might be worth adding little paragraph to this article if so.

Not sure, but something might be found in this dissertation:
