The Steve Jobs biography has been hugely popular in China with thousands lining up for the title, according to M.I.C. Gadget.

The launch of the Steve Jobs biography in China drew thousands of shoppers, emptying most of Chinese book shops' inventory and guess what, all 250,000 Chinese edition copies of Jobs' authorized biography are sold within a day of its release. This is phenomenal.

The book is also a huge hit in the U.S.A. with Amazon reporting it could be the biggest seller of 2011.

"The way things are trending, it could very likely be our top-selling book of the year," Amazon spokeswoman Brittany Turner told Reuters.

Take a look at some of the lineups below...

And it's not called "Bible" it's The Holy Bible

You are mistaken. "The Holy Bible" is a version of the bible. Just like King James Version, The Message, New Live translation, NIA, ETC. When someone is talking about "The Bible" they are talking about the Bible in-general (all Variations of the Bible).

What a tragedy! People don't know that a book called Bible can change everybody's life! Even though Steve Jobs was a very good visionary and an innovator, he missed something big in his life :(

I have to say ":(" is in no way "pressure others to join the church." he is just saying his own opinion and there is nothing wrong with that. I have to agree with ":("'s comment. Steve did great things, but great things COULD have been miraculous things if he was a religious man. My opinion maybe bi-est, But it feels to me like people think religious is work, or something they HAVE to do, NO! That's not the case. it's not, "I have to go to church", or " I have to tell people about the bible." It's more like "I GET to go to church!", or " I GET to tell people about the bible!" what do you do when you saw the best movie yesterday, you talk about it! but not normally, but you're ecstatic about it. Myself and ":(" are "ecstatic" about God. But when someone talks about God in public, people believe that is it inappropriate, and in some case rude. and think, "This is not the place to talk about God!" But, My question to you is, " where is?" Where is a good place to talk about God. Church, yes. But how are you going to spread the word in a place where people already believe in God. But to go back to my previous comment, "he's just stating his own opinion."

Some of this people are only buying to resale. They are the master of creating demand by taking what supply is available to the market I'm sure some of those farmers want to read this

I respect your opinion and it's probably true than not. But you have to understand that these people have to do what they have to do to better their lives. Sometimes and mostly they don't have a choice.
