The World Guide provides you with a refreshingly different perspective on the countries of the world. Drawing on United Nations and other mainstream data, it includes all the facts, history, political and economic analysis you would find in a conventional reference work, but it also offers information on issues central to the lives of people in Africa, Asia, the Middle East, Latin America and the Caribbean.

This 11th edition of this highly respected resource gives you up-to-date information plus a complete history of every single country, including small island states such as Aruba and Nauru, disputed states like Palestine and West Papua, and newly independent states such as Montenegro.

The World Guide is written and produced by the Third World Institute in Uruguay, using research from across the countries of the South. As a world reference, it is unique in providing a view of the world ‘from the South’.

Among the many NEW features are:

-25 new reports on topical global issues such as green economics, energy scenarios, the gender gap, Latin American politics and security.
-The World in Figures - a comprehensive section of data and statistics on child health, literacy, maternal mortality, land use, public expenditure and other issues.
-Tables of factual information on key issues such as debt, communications, corruption and trade, plus a unique guide to Sexual Minorities and the Law.

With a clear, country-by-country format, 250 maps, 650 diagrams and 10,000 references, it is the most accessible resource for home reference, development studies, comparative studies, travel research and fact-checking.
