Book excerpt: “A rich, complex history . . . Deeply engaging and witty” (Los Angeles Times). Long before Columbus arrived in the New Word, tobacco was cultivated and enjoyed by the indigenous inhabitants of the Americas, who used it for medicinal, religious, and social purposes. But when Europeans began to colonize the American continents, it became something else entirely—a cultural touchstone of pleasure and success, and a coveted commodity that would transform the world economy forever. Iain Gately’s Tobacco tells the epic story of an unusual plant and its unique relationship with the history of humanity, from its obscure ancient beginnings, through its rise to global prominence, to its current embattled state today. In a lively narrative, Gately makes the case for the tobacco trade being the driving force behind the growth of the American colonies, the foundation of Dutch trading empire, the underpinning cause of the African slave trade, and the financial basis for victory in the American Revolution. Well-researched and wide-ranging, Tobacco is a vivid and provocative look at the surprising roles this plant has played in the culture of the world. “Ambitious . . . informative and perceptive . . . Gately is an amusing writer, which is a blessing.” —The Washington Post “Documents the resourcefulness with which human beings of every class, religion, race, and continent have pursued the lethal leaf.” —The New York Times Book Review

Book Synopsis The Global Cigarette by : Howard Cox
Download or read book The Global Cigarette written by Howard Cox and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2000-03-16 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the 1880s, the tobacco manufacturing industries of Britain and America were revolutionized by the introduction of mechanized cigarette production. The development of this novel, image-laden product constituted a triumph for the methods of mass production and mass distribution in this most traditional of consumer goods industries. The Global Cigarette charts the way in which these innovations in manufacturing and marketing methods led to the formation in 1902 of the British American Tobacco Co. as an Anglo-American multinational joint venture designed to promote cigarettes in international markets. Based on archive materials from a wide variety of sources, including the company's own internal records, this book provides the first authoritative account of BAT's evolution and growth up until the Second World War. In particular, The Global Cigarette shows the way in which the company developed a vast array of international operating subsidiaries, explores how it managed these enterprises in different political and cultural contexts–notably in China and India–and analyses the way in which the company, as a mature multinational enterprise, coped with the severe international economic dislocations of the 1930s. In the era of globalization, this account of the operational and organizational arrangements of a prefigurative 'global' company will shed light on current debates on alliances, joint ventures, and international business.

Download or read book The Smoking Book written by Lesley Stern and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2008-04-15 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Smoking Book is a dreamlike structure built on the solid foundation of two questions: how does it feel to smoke, and what does smoking mean? Lesley Stern, in an innovative, hybrid form of writing, muses on these questions through intersecting stories and essays that connect, expand, and contract like smoke rings floating through the air. Stern writes of addictions and passionate attachments, of the body and bodily pleasure, of autobiography and cultural history. Smoking is Stern's seductive pretext, her way of entering unknown and mysterious regions. The Smoking Book begins with intimate and vivid accounts of growing up on a tobacco farm in colonial Rhodesia, reminiscences that permeate subsequent excursions into precolonial tobacco production and postcolonial life in Zimbabwe, as well as dramatic vignettes set in Australia, the United States, Scotland, Italy, Japan, and South America. Stern has written a book, at once intensely personal and kaleidoscopically international, that weaves the intimate act of a solitary person smoking a cigarette into a broad cultural picture of desire, exchange, fulfillment, and the acts that bind people together, either in lasting ways or through ephemeral encounters. The Smoking Book is for anyone who has ever smoked or loved a smoker (against their better judgment); it is for those who have never smoked or for those who mourn the loss of cigarettes as they would grieve for a lost friend. But mostly, The Smoking Book is for all those who are smoldering still.
Book Synopsis Nicotine Addiction and The Cure by : Hasan Mazhari
Download or read book Nicotine Addiction and The Cure written by Hasan Mazhari and published by Europa Edizioni. This book was released on 2021-07-31 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nicotine Addiction and The Cure - An Integrated Approach to Smoking Cessation is a guide on how to quit smoking that contains not only helpful hints but also real testimonials from people who have followed this path to the letter. After a detailed introduction on the origin of tobacco, the use of smoking and the growth of the tobacco and cigarette industry worldwide, with the consequent harmful effects on smokers and society, we move on to the spread of nicotine addiction and the treatment of smoking addiction. All data and experiences presented within the book are drawn from the author’s experience of running a smoking cessation clinic and his own study of over 35 years. In the smoking cessation clinic not only conventional medical treatments were provided, but also hypnosis and acupuncture for smokers who wanted to quit smoking. The book also discusses the conventional approach to smoking cessation with medication, behavioural therapy, counselling and e-cigarettes along with an alternative approach to smoking cessation incorporating hypnosis and acupuncture. The clinic’s project “An Integrated Approach to Smoking Cessation” was judged as one of the ten best projects in the UK by the Foundation for Integrated Medicine in 2001 and received a certificate of achievement from His Royal Highness Prince Charles. Dr Mazhari came to the UK in the early seventies. He did rotational jobs in various disciplines as a Senior House Officer at Whipton and Heavitree Hospital in Exeter, North Ormesby Hospital, Middlesborough, New Cross Hospital, Ryde County Hospital and Whitecroft Hospital in the Isle of Wight. In between the jobs, he obtained a Diploma in Tropical Medicine from the School of Tropical Medicine Liverpool, Diploma in Paediatrics from the University of Dublin, Diploma in Clinical Hypnosis from the University of Sheffield and achieved Licence and a Certificate of Competence to practice Acupuncture from the North Western Academy of Acupuncture Liverpool. After completing his training, he moved to Durham to work as a General Practitioner in practice in a mining village in Chopwell. In June 1982, he moved to Manchester to take over a single-handed practice in Clayton where he worked until his retirement in June 2017. It was here where he developed a special interest in smoking cessation and developed a smoking cessation clinic that uses therapies such as hypnosis and acupuncture. Besides being a GP, he is an accomplished poet, two of his books have been published in Delhi, India. He is a prolific writer, many of his articles have been published in various medical journals like Pulse, General Practitioner, Doctor, Med Economic and British Journal of International Doctors (BIDA). Even in his retirement he keeps active in writing and reading, hence this book to share his experiences of smoking cessation.
