Book Not Far Enough

Download or read book Not Far Enough written by and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1904, a woman was arrested on Fifth Avenue for smoking a cigarette, while a procession of bemused smoking males passed by unharassed. For the next 50 years, with the creative encouragement of the emerging giants of the cigarette industry, the right to smoke became a symbol of women's liberation and equality. That liberation came at a terrible price. As the lung cancer rate for women soared, passing breast cancer as the leading cause of cancer in women in 1985, women achieved a grisly equality. On February 4, 1987, a group of women leaders active both in public health and in a wide diversity of women's organizations-gathered together in Washington to take stock of the common effort. A series of papers-on smoking's role in women's disease and death, on women's smoking behavior, on the role of the tobacco industry-set the stage for an intensive effort by the participants, working in small groups, to hammer out together an agenda of strategies to combat smoking among women. The highlights of those papers, and a synthesis of the most favored strategies, form the body of this report. For 50 years, smoking reigned as a symbol of women's freedom. Now we know that smoking only substituted one form of enslavement for another. That's why the workshop participants chose to name their effort, the "Not Far Enough Network."

Book Women and Smoking Since 1890

Download or read book Women and Smoking Since 1890 written by Rosemary Elliot and published by Taylor & Francis US. This book was released on 2008 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The changing face of the female smoker, from the lady smokers of the late nineteenth century to the lone mother of the late twentieth century, suggests that the history of smoking among women is not just about the assimilation of women into a male practice, but about the changing, and varied, circumstances of women’s lives. In this innovative study, Elliott articulates the way in which the history of smoking among women raises complex questions about the construction of female identities in relation to smoking, and the implications of this for understanding smoking among women as a medical and public health problem. In addressing these questions, Elliott uses a variety of source material, from popular magazines to films to medical discourse, to map the history of smoking among women on to changing understandings of gender and social expectations of women over the twentieth century at a societal and an individual level.
