WOMEN AND BOOKS 2007 NATIONAL STUDY LAUNCHED at BookCatcher.com
The post at their
site says:
Over the past 52 weeks, fewer than 15 percent of the books on the New York Times
non-fiction bestseller list were authored by women. Industry experts estimate
that nearly 70 percent of non-fiction books are purchased by women. This
disparity led Content Connections and eWomenPublishingNetwork
to launch a national, comprehensive study on the reading, recommending and
book buying habits of women. The study also investigates the factors that
can help more women become successful, published authors.
Women and Books 2007 National Study
is available online from March 8th, through Mother's Day on May 13th. The survey can be found
