가장 많이 팔린 책 목록

다음은 언어와 관계없이 세계에서 가장 많이 팔린 책들(베스트셀러)의 목록이다. 만화책과 교과서는 이 목록에 포함되지 않는다. 성경, 쿠란 등 많은 종교 서적과 마오쩌둥 어록 등 일부 정치 서적은 팔렸다기보다는 무료로 배포된 수가 많고, 서로 다른 출판사와 판형으로 간행되기 때문에 판매 부수를 입증하기 힘든 이유로 그런 경우는 싣지 않았다.

Inman, William H. (2011) "Hotelier Saint-Exupery's Princely Instincts", Institutional Investor, March 2011.

Quote: "The Prince remains a king among books, with more than 200 million copies sold in more than 190 languages, making it one of the bestselling volumes of any kind." 《반지의 제왕》은 처음엔 작가가 한 권으로 내려고 했으나 초판을 인쇄할 때에는 2차대전 직후의 종이 부족으로 인해 3권으로 분리돼서 출판되었고, 그 뒤로도 한 권에서 일곱 권까지 다양한 형태로 출판되었다. 2007년 기준으로 어떠한 형태로든 소설 전체가 팔린 양은 1억 5000만으로 추정된다.
