Review Quotes




?"China Social Statistics 1986 was completed to offer essential basic information on China's social development since 1949, and to illustrate the major characteristics of contemporary China's society....With the exception of the total surface area of the country and the timber reserves, figures of Taiwan are not included in the national figures." The section on population and family provides data on total and regional population, population growth, sex ratio, nationality, age characteristics, birth rate, death rate, natural increase, life expectancy, marital status, marriage age, household size and type, family size, and contraceptive use.?-Population Index

?The second volume in the China Statistics Series, which is based on information published by the Statistical Bureau of the People's Republic of China. Like the China Statistical Abstract 1988 coverage is best for the late 1970s through the mid-1980s (in this case 1985), with retrospective coverage (in some time series) as far back as 1949. The almost 300 tables are arranged under the headings General Survey' Population and Family' Labor.' Income and Consumption.' Housing and Services, ' Labor Insurance and Social Welfare, ' Education, ' Scientific Research, ' Health Care, ' Environmental Protection, ' Culture, ' Physical Culture, ' Social Order and Security, ' Participation in Political and Social Activities, ' and Daily Time Allocation.' The number of tables and the range of topics covered make this volume a more worthwhile purchase than the China Statistical Abstract.?-Choice
