What is M/R defense?

By Orjo Creld, in Star Wars: Edge of the Empire RPG

Mynocks have 1. I can't find the explanation of what it defends from. Page, please?

Melee and Ranged.

Melee and Ranged Defense. I'm away from my book, but each rank of Defense grants 1 Setback to attacks against that character.

It doesn't stack with other sources such as cover, so if a character with a M/R Defense of 1 hides behind a wooden crate (which provides cover of 1 Setback), the character still only has 1 Defense providing 1 Setback against attacks.

Defense is explained on pages 206 and 207 of the CRB.
