THE TOP 10 PEOPLE BOOKS HAVE BEEN WRITTEN ABOUT: One list was compiled by a CIA analyst in 1999, the other by a former Los Angeles Police detective in 2020. The same name tops both lists, but there are some surprises in who’s where and how the rankings changed.

UPDATE: For commenters who question the accuracy of the Google search results, I should point out that Wallace notes the results are based on “every country, every publisher, and every kind of author (including self-published).”
