Other than the obvious (the jackets). Is there any more information in hard covers?

The only other difference is the price, hardcovers are usually at least 30 percent more and of course, will last longer. Other than that, the stories inside are the same.
Happy New Year!

Both books have the same content. The only difference is the cover, and whatever information is in the cover.
of course, the price of the hard cover is higher.

Some paperbacks are abridged, but generally they are exactly the same content. I only invest in hardcover if it's one of my two favorite authors, otherwise I go to the library or buy a paperback to pass around.

No, but people usually prefer hardbacks vs paperback to keep on their shelves so they last longer and look better. But they are the same inside.

In most cases, no. Unless the paperback says something like condensed or abridged version.

Hard cover is more durable, but otherwise the words inside are exactly the same.

Lets say its last longs and if you are going to read it more than once its better that it is a hardcover. Paperbacks are best for fiction(novels and such) yet less expensive ....enjoy your reading!

The Price, otherwise the books are exactly the same unless one of them is specified as a special edition.

Not normally, no. But the hardback usually comes out earlier, so if you want to read the book as soon as possible that's the way to go

No, Trixie, the contents are exactly the same, only the covers have been changed.
