The Hugo Awards are given annually by members of the World Science Fiction Convention for the best science fiction or fantasy works. The awards are named after Hugo Gernsback, the founder of the pioneering science fiction magazine Amazing Stories, and given in various categories.

The winners of the Hugo Award for best non-fiction book are presented here. (After 1998, the category was retitled best related book.) Awards given in one year are for works released during the previous calendar year.
