    SUGGESTED READING

[1893472132.jpg] 2000 America! U.S. Census Bureau National Facts,
Statistics, and Population Data - (by US Census Bureau) STATISTICAL
ABSTRACT OF THE U.S.: THE NATIONAL DATA BOOK 1999 - 119TH EDITION -
Released by the Bureau in early 2000, this fantastic report contains over
1600 tables and charts, making it the best known and most popular single
source of statistics on the social, political, and economic organization
of our great nation. The Abstract has been published since 1878 and
serves as a convenient, easy-to-use reference source. It provides an
extensive selection of statistics for the United States, with selected
data for States, metropolitan areas, cities, and foreign countries from
reports and records of government and private agencies. The Census Bureau
declares that the Statistical Abstract is "the government's most
important statistical factbook - great for students, libraries, research
organizations, or home reference." New topics covered include employment
and wages in the information technology industry, criminal victimization
at school and breast-feeding of infants. Although the book's emphasis is
on national data, many tables present figures for regions and individual
States. The CD-ROM edition contains more years of data, more countries,
and more categories of subjects than in the print edition. The CD-ROM
also provides over 1,600 table-to-spreadsheet links, direct
table-to-Internet site links, and search capabilities on table number and
titles as well as general subjects
