| Synopsis: |
It's been a used as in sacred ceremonies, in medicine, and as a life-saving cash crop in the New World. But today, tobacco is a problem - a big problem. It is one of the first substances to which young people become addicted, and the more than 4,000 chemicals contained in tobacco smoke are dangerous to smokers and to those simply in the proximity of the smoke.In "Tobacco: Through the Smoke Screen", the author tells the story of tobacco, its history, its role in culture, and its dangers. Readers will also learn about the power of tobacco over smokers and chewers, and how cigarette makers helped increase its hold - and make it more difficult to live without.There is hope, and "Tobacco: Through the Smoke Screen" provides readers with suggestions on how to kick the tobacco habit and reverse its ill effects. |
