I'm sure this has been brought up several times, but I searched the forums and could not find an answer.
In the PHP, under the Concentration skill, it says that explains what "Casting Defensively" does, and I understand that. My question concerns what is said about "Casting on the Defensive" under the "Combat" section. Are these the same thing, or is the one addressed in the combat section the same as "Fighting Defensivley" as described in the same section? Fighting defensively grants an AC bonus, does the "Casting on the defensive" gain an AC bonus also?

So is there any way to gain AC while casting a spell? Or is this advantage exclusive to fighting classes?

There's a feat in I believe Races of the Wild that gives you +2 AC when casting defensively.
