Abstract	"The Development Data Book," published by the World Bank presents statistics on countries with populations of more than one million. The statistics relate to economic development and the changes it is bringing about in the world.

Worksheets and maps accompany the activities. The goals of this teaching guide are to: (1) increase students' knowledge and understanding of economic development and of social and economic conditions in developing countries; and (2) strengthen students' ability to perform statistical calculations, make and interpret maps and other statistical data, analyze and synthesize information, make inferences and generalizations, and think critically in solving problems and making decisions.
