Book excerpt: This report considers the biological and behavioral mechanisms that may underlie the pathogenicity of tobacco smoke. Many Surgeon General's reports have considered research findings on mechanisms in assessing the biological plausibility of associations observed in epidemiologic studies. Mechanisms of disease are important because they may provide plausibility, which is one of the guideline criteria for assessing evidence on causation. This report specifically reviews the evidence on the potential mechanisms by which smoking causes diseases and considers whether a mechanism is likely to be operative in the production of human disease by tobacco smoke. This evidence is relevant to understanding how smoking causes disease, to identifying those who may be particularly susceptible, and to assessing the potential risks of tobacco products.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Smoke Problem of Great Cities Much of the work which is represented by the pages of this volume has been done with a view to successive reports of a Committee for the Investigation of Atmospheric Pollution, appointed in 1912 in order to give effect to the wishes of a conference held in London in connection with a smoke-abatement exhibition in that year. The committee was purely voluntary; originally it relied to a considerable extent upon the good offices of the Lancet, which had not only facilities in regard to publication but also a laboratory which was then in charge of the late Mr. S. A. Vasey, himself a member of the committee. He was very helpful in finding a way through the difficult questions of the chemical analysis of the large bottles of dirty water which represented a month's material for investigation. The other active members of the committee were Dr. Des Voeux, treasurer of the Coal Smoke Abatement Society, Mr. J. G. Clarke, F.C.S., Dr. R. Lessing, F.C.S., all of London, Mr. J. B. C. Kershaw, of Manchester, and Bailie W. Smith, of Glasgow. Some of these names were already well-known, and have now become still better known, in connection with the smoke problem of great cities, but the question referred to the committee was limited to the investigation of the amount and nature of atmospheric pollution "for its own sake," to adopt a phrase that, by long use, has acquired a sort of scientific implication. The reader must therefore exonerate our colleagues on the committee from responsibility for anything outside the limits of purely scientific inquiry which may be found in these pages.

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.
