OECD in Figures is an original, simple to use, pocket data book. It is a primary statistical source. As with all OECD data, it is compiled and checked by our experts, so that decision-makers in government, research and business know they can rely on it. The 2008 edition of OECD in Figures contains key data on OECD countries, ranging from economic growth and employment to inflation, trade and environment.
