It is hardback, but thick paperback sized (326 pages), made up of 99 Chapters each of two to three pages.
Originally the text was written as a series short magazine articles, so this is in effect a bound collection all in one place.
Rolf tackles the many ways in which thinking errors can occur (what we think is going on, and what is actually going on, can and often is very different). In a sense this is quite profound, we all run around with models of how the world works (and interconnects), and these models provide a handy short cut to quick decisions rather than thinking things through from scratch every time.
I would recommend Dobelli's book to anyone who has never thought about behavioural psychology before, but for most people Taleb is better (if in himself, a breathtakingly arrogant writer).
Not rocket science but I learned a few things. The format is a bit tired after the first few chapters. A good book to dip into a chapter or two at a time.
