Description

The Statistical Yearbook for Latin America and the Caribbean of ECLAC presents a set of basic statistics on the economic, sociodemographic and environmental situation of the region during a specific time period. This edition of the Yearbook includes information available up to mid-December 2023. The Yearbook comprises three chapters. The first covers demographic and social indicators and includes statistical information on population, labour, education, health, housing and basic services, poverty and income distribution, and gender. The second chapter presents economic statistics relating to trade, balance of payments and domestic prices, as well as national accounts. The statistical series are expressed in dollars. The third chapter provides quantitative information available on the environment referring to physical characteristics, land cover, biodiversity, environmental quality, energy, biological and water resources, emissions, extreme natural events and disasters, environmental regulations and governance, and human settlements. Given the abundance of data —often diverse and sometimes conflicting— now accessible to researchers, special attention must be paid to technical aspects specifying the source of the data, their definition and coverage. This information is presented in a fourth chapter available in the digital version of this Yearbook, which deals with methodology and metadata, supplementing the more specific information contained in the footnotes and sources of each of the tables and graphics in this Yearbook.

En el Anuario Estadístico de América Latina y el Caribe de la CEPAL se presenta un conjunto de estadísticas básicas que caracterizan la situación económica, sociodemográfica y ambiental de la región referidas a un período en particular. La presente edición del Anuario contiene datos que se encontraban disponibles hasta mediados de diciembre de 2023. El Anuario consta de tres capítulos. El primero, en que se presentan los indicadores demográficos y sociales, incluye información estadística sobre población, trabajo, educación, salud, vivienda y servicios básicos, pobreza y distribución del ingreso, y género. En el segundo capítulo se reúnen estadísticas económicas de comercio internacional, balanza de pagos y precios internos, así como de cuentas nacionales (expresadas en dólares). En el tercer capítulo se presenta la información cuantitativa disponible sobre medio ambiente referida a condiciones físicas, cobertura terrestre, biodiversidad, calidad ambiental, recursos energéticos, biológicos e hídricos, emisiones al aire, eventos naturales extremos y desastres, regulación y gobernanza ambiental, y asentamientos humanos. La abundante información —a menudo diversa y en ocasiones contradictoria— a la que los usuarios pueden acceder obliga a prestar particular atención a los aspectos técnicos, como la documentación del origen de los datos, su definición y cobertura. Esta referencia se presenta en un cuarto capítulo incluido en la versión web de este Anuario, dedicado a la metodología y los metadatos, lo que complementa la información más específica que figura en las notas y fuentes al pie de los cuadros y gráficos.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
