FOREWORD
This is the seventh issue of "Basic Statistics". The series came
into being under the European Coal and Steel Community and
(since 1959) has expanded under the three Communities. The
present issue numbers 204 pages and contains tens of thousands
of figures. It describes almost every aspect of life in the Six, in
the associated countries, in EFTA and in the main industrial
countries (Canada, United States, Japan, USSR),
Despite this growth the publication has not shaken off all its
defects. There are still lacunae, the data are not always compa­
rable, and some of the information is not of the most up-to-date.
May the reader forgive these blemishes and help us with his
criticism. We hope that the work will be of assistance to him in
his research, dispel his uncertainties and make him better ac­
quainted with the truth of our present-day world.
