Summary: | The Little Data Book (LDB) 2006 is a
pocket edition of World Development Indicators (WDI) 2006.
It is intended as a quick reference for users of WDI 2006
book and CD-ROM and WDI online, electronic subscription
database. Together, they cover more than 800 indicators and
span 40 years. The 208 pages of country tables in the LDB
present the latest available data for World Bank member
countries and other economies with populations of more than
30,000. The 14 summary pages cover aggregate data for
regional and income groups. The data in this book are for
1990, 2003, and 2004 or the most recent year available
unless otherwise noted in the glossary: i) growth rates are
proportional changes from the previous year unless otherwise
noted; ii) regional aggregates include data for low- and
middle-income economies only; and iii) data in italics are
for years or periods other than those specified. In keeping
with WDI 2006, this edition of The Little Data Book uses
terminology in line with the 1993 system of national
accounts. In particular, gross national product (GNP) is
replaced by gross national income (GNI). |
