So the Guinness Book of World Records (logo on the right) has the Guinness World Record for The Best Selling Copyright Book in the world. Considering that it is not very big in size, it has been added in this series in terms of Number of Copies Sold. It has sold about a 100 million copies worldwide, with the 100 millionth copy being sold in November 2003. It was first published in October 1955 by Guinness Superlatives, a subsidiary of Arthur Guinness Son Co. (Park Royal) Ltd and has since gone global, selling in some 37 languages. It has been publishing a book every year since 1955 and has had various authors. It broke the previous existing World Record in June 2001.
