Smoking and tobacco have received much attention in the
literature throughout this century, particularly in the last 30
years. The causal role of smoking in a large number of fatal
diseases has been established. Concern about the ill effects of
smoking has led to anti-smoking campaigns revolving around primary
prevention and smoking cessation. This book focuses on the
literature directed to those who cannot or will not quit smoking
and offers an informed risk reduction approach aimed directly at
the chronic smoker. A large number of smoking interventions are
represented as well as the characteristics of smokers and the
outcome of the respective interventions. The importance of
continued research on controlled or reduced smoking as opposed to
that of smoking cessation is outlined and methodological flaws are
offered to alert future researchers. This literature will be an
invaluable resource to health professionals, therapists, and others
involved in the issue of health and the hazards of continued
smoking.
