List of best-selling books
This page provides lists of best-selling single-volume books and book series to date and in any language. ''"Best selling"'' refers to the estimated number of copies sold of each book, rather than the number of books printed or currently owned. Comics and textbooks are not included in this list. The books are listed according to the highest sales estimate as reported in reliable, independent sources. This list is incomplete because there are many books, such as ''Don Quixote'', ''A Tale of Two Cities'', ''The Three Musketeers'', ''Les Misérables'', ''Pride and Prejudice'', ''The Adventures of Pinocchio'', ''Alice's Adventures in Wonderland'' and the ''Odyssey'' that are commonly cited as "best-selling books" yet have no reliable sales figures. There is a separate section on this page for books known to have sold over 10 million copies but without figures for their exact sales.
According to Guinness World Records, the Bible is the best-selling book of all time with over 5 billion copies sold and distributed.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/world-records/best-selling-book-of-non-fiction )〕 However, the Quotations from Chairman Mao, also known as the ''Little Red Book'', has produced a wide array of sales and distribution figures — with some sources claiming over 6.5 billion printed volumes,〔Zhengyuan Fu, ''Autocratic Tradition and Chinese Politics'', Cambridge University Press 1994, p. 186. (Autocratic Tradition and Chinese Politics )〕 others claiming the distribution ran into the "billions,"〔Allen Kent, Harold Lancour, Jay E. Daily, ''Encyclopedia of Library and Information Science, Volume 22'', CRC Press 1977, p.31. (Encyclopedia of Library and Information Science )〕 and others citing "over a billion" official volumes between 1966 and 1969 alone as well as "untold numbers of unofficial local reprints and unofficial translations."〔Alexander C. Cook, ''Mao's Little Red Book: A Global History'', Cambridge University Press 2014, p. xiii (Mao's Little Red Book: A Global History )〕〔Daniel Leese, ''Mao Cult: Rhetoric and Ritual in China's Cultural Revolution'', Cambridge University Press 2013, p. 108 (Mao Cult: Rhetoric and Ritual in China's Cultural Revolution )〕 The Qur'an is also widely reported to be one of the most printed and distributed books worldwide,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The 21 Best-selling Books of All Time )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Bible vs. Mao: A "Best Guess" of the Top 25 Bestselling Books of All Time - Publishing Perspectives )〕 with billions of copies believed to be in existence. Exact print figures for these and other books may also be missing or unreliable since these kinds of books may be produced by many different and unrelated publishers, in some cases over many centuries. All books of a religious, ideological, philosophical or political nature have been excluded from this list of best-selling books for these reasons.
