Book excerpt: This report focuses on topics and issues related to the global use of tobacco. It consists of an introduction and six major sections. These sections deal with: (1) the epidemic rate at which smoking is spreading, indicating that the global rate has grown nearly 75 percent over the past two decades and is growing at 2.1 percent per year, faster than world population growth; (2) health factors, indicating that lung cancer is predominantly a disease of smoking and showing the international correlation between cigarette consumption and lung cancer deaths after 20 years of smoking; (3) sidestream smoke (which wafts from a smoker's cigarette to an involuntary smoker) and its effects on others, indicating that passive smoking has been correlated with lung cancer in nonsmoking spouses of smokers in more than 10 studies; (4) effects on children, indicating that in one United States survey, smokers gave birth to underweight babies twice as often as other women did; (5) antismoking efforts to date; and (6) stronger measures, such as banishing tobacco by prohibiting tobacco from workplaces and public buildings. Data tables are included when applicable, for example, on cigarette use in selected countries (1984), and smoking among United States males by educational level (1982). (JN)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The nation has made tremendous progress in reducing tobacco use during the past 40 years. Despite extensive knowledge about successful interventions, however, approximately one-quarter of American adults still smoke. Tobacco-related illnesses and death place a huge burden on our society. Ending the Tobacco Problem generates a blueprint for the nation in the struggle to reduce tobacco use. The report reviews effective prevention and treatment interventions and considers a set of new tobacco control policies for adoption by federal and state governments. Carefully constructed with two distinct parts, the book first provides background information on the history and nature of tobacco use, developing the context for the policy blueprint proposed in the second half of the report. The report documents the extraordinary growth of tobacco use during the first half of the 20th century as well as its subsequent reversal in the mid-1960s (in the wake of findings from the Surgeon General). It also reviews the addictive properties of nicotine, delving into the factors that make it so difficult for people to quit and examines recent trends in tobacco use. In addition, an overview of the development of governmental and nongovernmental tobacco control efforts is provided. After reviewing the ethical grounding of tobacco control, the second half of the book sets forth to present a blueprint for ending the tobacco problem. The book offers broad-reaching recommendations targeting federal, state, local, nonprofit and for-profit entities. This book also identifies the benefits to society when fully implementing effective tobacco control interventions and policies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the 1950s when the evidence on smoking causing serious, fatal diseases began consolidating, hundreds of millions of smokers have quit. Overwhelmingly, the great majority quit unassisted without any professional or pharmaceutical help. But from the late 1970s, massive campaigns have urged smokers not to go the cold turkey route and instead take nicotine replacement therapy, prescribed drugs and most recently, to vape. Simon Chapman is a veteran researcher, a global public health advocate and an Australian Skeptic of the Year. In this book he analyses the relentless push to medicalise and commodify quitting and sets out those policies and campaigns which have collectively driven smoking rates down to record low levels.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tobacco, as has been amply proven, is hazardous to people's health. Nevertheless, in many of the countries of the Americas increasing urbanization and changing lifestyles have resulted in greater use of tobacco. At the same time, health and disease patterns in the developing countries of the hemisphere are undergoing and "epidemiologic transition," with chronic noncommunicable diseases displacing infectious diseases as the primary causes of morbidity and mortality. In the next few decades, these countries can be expected to face, and will need to prepare for, an epidemic of smoking-related diseases, particularly lung cancer, and a proportionaly imposing burden on national health services. To confront that epidemic and alleviate that burden, greater understanding is necessary of the historical, economic, political, and publich health aspects of the supply, demand, and consumption of tobacco. This publication aims to further that understanding by providing information on the general socioeconomic context, the tobacco industry, tobacco use, smoking and its effects on health, and smoking prevention and control activities in the countries of Latin America, the Caribbean, and Canada. Most of the information contained in this pulication cannot e found in any other single source. It will thus serve as a baseline of data for developing countries in the Region as they engage in the complex issues involved in preventing and controlling tobacco use. Health workers, researchers, and policy makers can use the information presented here to build a coalition against what may prove to be the most important pulic health problem of the 1990sm.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Banishing troublesome and deviant people from society was common in the early modern period. Many European countries removed their paupers, convicted criminals, rebels and religious dissidents to remote communities or to their colonies where they could be simultaneously punished and, perhaps, contained and reformed. Under British rule, poor Irish, Scottish Jacobites, English criminals, Quakers, gypsies, Native Americans, the Acadian French in Canada, rebellious African slaves, or vulnerable minorities like the Jews of St. Eustatius, were among those expelled and banished to another place. This book explores the legal and political development of this forced migration, focusing on the British Atlantic world between 1600 and 1800. The territories under British rule were not uniform in their policies, and not all practices were driven by instructions from London, or based on a clear legal framework. Using case studies of legal and political strategies from the Atlantic world, and drawing on accounts of collective experiences and individual narratives, the authors explore why victims were chosen for banishment, how they were transported and the impact on their lives. The different contexts of such banishment – internal colonialism ethnic and religious prejudice, suppression of religious or political dissent, or the savageries of war in Europe or the colonies – are examined to establish to what extent displacement, exile and removal were fundamental to the early British Empire.
