This book reports on the 1920 British Empire Statistical Conference, where statisticians from across the British Empire gathered to discuss best practices and the establishment of a central statistical bureau. The author provides extensive context on the state of statistics and census-taking at the time, as well as comparisons between the methods used by the various participating countries. The conference emphasized the importance of a statistical bureau to coordinate data and provide a comprehensive view of the Empire's economic and social conditions, and thus better inform political decision-making. The book not only highlights the historical significance of the conference but also provides insights into the evolution of statistical practices and international cooperation within the British Empire.
