Data from N. Gregory Mankiw, David Romer and David N. Weil,
&quot;A contribution to the empirics of economic growth,&quot;
Quarterly Journal of Economics, May 1992, pp. 407-437

Cross-country data from 1960 and 1985 with average growth
rates of GDP and population of working age, the average
ratio of investment to GDP, and the percentage of the
working-age population in secondary school.

Note by Allin Cottrell: 
These data are taken from Appendix to the paper.  I believe
they do not correspond exactly to the data used in the
regressions reported in the paper, since I am unable to
reproduce those results exactly (the differences are minor
but noticeable).</description>
