| Contenu: | This volume presents a comprehensive review of tobacco smoking. The book covers the history, economics, epidemiology and psychology of tobacco use and examines the medical consequences of both active and passive smoking. The pharmacological and behavioural aspects of nicotine dependence are highlighted and several chapters focus on smoking cessation, examining patterns and predictors of cessation in the general population, the role of GPs, nurses and pharmacists and evaluation of nicotine replacement therapy and the role of smokeless tobacco. Measures to prevent smoking, such as smoke-free environments and advertising bans are also considered. Finally, recommendations are given to change legislation concerning tobacco products, in order to effectively reduce the harm associated with nicotine use. [Ed.] |
