Jamala won the 2016 Eurovision Song Contest for Ukraine with her emotional performance of "1944", in a thrilling final in Stockholm. Australia were runners-up in only their second Contest and would have won if the traditional points system had still been used. The 2016 Edition of the Complete & Independent Guide is the 9th edition of this book and as usual it's packed with details of every Contest since 1956 along with plenty of new analysis, over 313 pages, 30 more than last year. The new points system was a big change this year and its effects are covered in detail in the book, with plenty of analysis of how the statistics under the new system compare to the previous one. The book looks at the national qualification competitions for 2016 and also has an in-depth section on the entire voting history of each country, along with new sections on geographical voting and how to predict winners.
