OECD Factbook 2006. Economic, Environmental and Social Statistics

The OECD Factbook 2006 is the second edition of a new statistical source from the OECD. It provides a global overview of the world economic, social and environmental trends. It brings together in a single publication 100 indicators that are essential to evaluate the relative position of any OECD country (including all EU Member States), both at a given moment and over time, in the following fields: Population and migration; Macroeconomic trends; Economic globalisation; Prices; Labour market; Science and technology; Environment; Education; Public policies; Quality of life; Energy.

The 2006 edition presents many new features, including indicators on the 'brain drain', Tsunami recovery, aid, and cultural and leisure activities. It also includes data on key non-OECD member countries, namely Brazil, China, India, The Russian Federation and South Africa.
