What the government doesn't tell youa[bar]

' book review

The abundance of governmental and official statistics available is nicely complemented by the succinctly and accurately entitled Sources of Non-Official UK Statistics.

The book cites more than 900 non-official titles and services taken from studies conducted by a wide range of trade associations and journals, professional bodies, banks, consultancies, employer federations and periodicals.

The sixth incarnation of this title boasts an additional 180 entries, listing sources exclusively available on the web, and with a new heading for each entry that details whether the information originates from a web-based source.

Sources is aimed at librarians and information professionals in marketing departments, and is organised in a simple A to Z fashion, with indexes based on title and subject. Each record carries a brief synopsis of the type of statistical information it contains, its title, the organisation that holds the data, cost and typical contact details.
