A report by PricewaterhouseCoopers (a company that provides audit, tax advice, and legal and advisory) revealed that in 2008 the overall consumption of books turned a profit for $ s 115.266 million, of which only 4,772 are for Latin America.



While countries like Chile invest $ 11 when instructed to books, Argentina spends just 6, about 22 pesos, enough to buy books of bad edits.

Brazil stands out as a power, to invest about $ 19 per year per person, a figure that although far from France, the country that purchase, represents three times the cost of Argentina. That is, a Brazilian resident reads three times as much as Argentina.

Mexico spends a little more than Argentina, $ 8, and Venezuela much less, only $ 1 per person.

The work of the consultant found that 43.63% of total sales in 2008 corresponds to the Europe, Middle East and Africa, the 28.28% to North America and 23.97%, the Asia-Pacific region.

The continent of Argentina is the world's region that less money spent on book culture, and above the ratio is uneven, as are the Brazilians who generate 70% of the profits of the sector. The remaining 30%, some $ s 1,474, be allocated between countries such as Argentina, Mexico, Colombia, Chile and Venezuela. Whereupon, which provides the country with this production is almost imperceptible.

Worldwide French readers are the most invested in books, about $ 144 a year, followed by the Israelis, with $ S139, the Germans, 114; the Spanish, with 111, the Italians and the Americans with 110; and English, with $ 107.

One interesting point is that work comes after the United States, where total expenditure reached the $ s 30.945 million, the country of the world where more books are sold is China, where sales were $ s 10,250 million. However, due to the high population, investment per person per year is only $ 8.
