ProQuest Statistical Abstract of the United States 2015 Reviews

Long live the Stat Abstract. . . .[I'm] a fanatical booster of the Statistical Abstract of the United States, which . . . collected the most complete and compact set of statistics about this country that has ever existed and probably ever will. * The Instrumentalist *
ProQuest rescued Statistical Abstracts after the Census Bureau announced in 2011 that it would cease publication. Following the earlier editions, this venerable reference source is still one large volume with more than 1,000 pages. Updates abound, with a list of new tables including 'Young Adults Living at Home by Sex and Age'; 'Top 15 Cancers among Men and Women by Race and Ethnicity'; and 'Reading in Print, Electronic and Audio Formats among Adults by Selected Characteristics.' These and numerous other statistics make Statistical Abstract of the United States a necessary and reasonably priced source at the reference desk in any library. * Booklist *
This essential print resource belongs at or near the reference center and/or government documents service desk of all public and academic libraries as well as in many high school libraries. * American Reference Books Annual *
Statistical Abstract of the United States 2015 is probably the one essential book for any library with holdings of American history, current events, or culture. Building upon the oldest continuous statistical series published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics that dates from 1890, its contents are staggering in their variety and depth. . . .[T]his book remains a bargain despite being absolutely essential for all collections of American Studies, US history, politics, economics, and sociology. * Hungarian Journal Of English and American Studies *
