United Nations Development Programme 2003. Launched by the United Nations in 1990, the Human Development Index measures a country’s achievements in three aspects of human development: longevity, knowledge, and a decent standard of living. It was created to re-emphasize that people and their lives should be the ultimate criteria for assessing the development of a country, not economic growth. Current values range from 0.944( Norway, 1/175 countries) to 0.275 ( Sierra Leone, 175/175 countries). Countries fall into one of three groups: countries1-55=high development; 56-141=medium development; 142-175=low development. Available via: http://www.undp.org/hdr2003/
