A fascinating aspect of the modern community is its apparent preoccupation with the collection and dissemination of statistics. Never before has a community kept such meticulous records of how many people are born, how many die, how many are sick, how much is produced, how many are unemployed, how much they owe, what they intend to buy. These elaborate attempts to keep informed mean that the community is concerned about its members and about the conditions under which they live.
