"Key figures on Europe presents a selection of statistical data on Europe. Most data cover the European Union and its Member States, while some indicators are provided for other countries, such as members of EFTA, candidate countries to the European Union, Japan or the United States. The main chapters of this pocketbook cover the following areas: population; living conditions and social protection; health; education and training; labour market; economy and finance; international trade; agriculture, forestry and fisheries; industry, trade and services; research and communication; environment; energy; and transport. This pocketbook, which presents a subset of the most popular information found in the continuously updated online publication Europe in figures – Eurostat yearbook (available through http://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/statistics-explained), may be viewed as an introduction to European statistics and provides guidance to the vast range of data freely available from the Eurostat website.
