    • Abstract:
      The article reports on the decline in overall print book sales in Great Britain in 2010, and looks at the reasons behind this trend. It says that 76 books took more than 1 million British pounds through the tills, with Jamie Oliver's "Jamie's 30-Minute Meals" becoming the bestselling hardback non-fiction book since Nielsen BookScan records began in 1998. Stieg Larsson became only the second author on record to achieve the feat, with his three titles that sold more than 1 million copies. Charts listing the best seller titles are also provided.
