Shortened and concentrated
Condensed means reduced in volume, length, or scope while retaining essential content.

A condensed version of a book or article is shortened.
In physics, condensed matter is material in a dense state—liquids and solids rather than gases.
The word implies compression without loss of substance: a condensed summary of the main points.
