'The Handbook of Industrial Statistics is an essential source of reference for economists specialising in industrial and development issues and I would expect it to be available in all good libraries.' - F.I. Nixson, University of Manchester, UK This unique, comprehensive reference work, now in its sixth edition, provides detailed up-to-date statistical information that is not available from any other single source. It presents internationally comparable statistics for over 120 countries at different levels of detail in industry/product specification. The data appearing in the Handbook have been collected from both national and international sources and supplemented through field work by UNIDO statisticians.
