Whereas most crops drive farmers apart as they compete for the best prices, the price controls on tobacco bring growers together. The result is a culture unlike any other in America, one often forgotten or overlooked as federal and state governments fight over the spoils of the tobacco settlement. Tobacco Culture describes the process of raising a crop of burley from the perspective and experience of the farmers themselves. In the process of gathering information for the book, the authors performed most steps in the tobacco production process, from dropping plants, burning seedbeds, topping,

Smokeless Tobacco Products: Characteristics, Usage, Health Effects, and Regulatory Implications, a title in the Emerging Issues in Analytical Chemistry series, presents an overview of research on the second most dangerous tobacco product. This book presents findings on public health risks emanating from the complex interaction between smokeless tobacco products and their users. It covers the key components of assessment and provides insight into scientific and public health considerations. The book does not take a simplistic condemnatory position, but rather conceptualizes tobacco use in terms of graduated public health danger and harm reduction. The book begins by introducing smokeless tobacco, its history of use, marketing, and implications for public health. It then continues with coverage of epidemiology, pathology and clinical implications, addiction, and treatment, and includes laboratory studies of human use. The following section explains the chemistry, biochemical mechanisms of carcinogenesis, and role of plant cultivation and manufacturing in toxicity. Finally, the book concludes by addressing regulatory considerations, the scientific basis of regulations, and the role of these products in harm reduction for smokers. This is the first resource of its kind to cover these topics together and in language appropriate to both specialists in the research community and informed persons responsible for legislative, funding, and public health matters in the community at large.Brings attention to smokeless tobacco product use and its association with addiction and disease. Considers smokeless tobacco use historically and currently, as well as its place in a future harm-reduction conceptualization of tobacco. Written by a distinguished, internationally recognized group of tobacco researchers from academia, independent research organizations, and the federal government with expertise in the many and various disciplines covered.

On pourrait presque assimiler l'existence du tabac, cette usine toxique complexe, à un moyen de suicide « voire même de suicide collectif », si lent et diabolique qu'il relève du plus illusoire des mirages hédoniques. Ce livre vise à présenter l'ensemble des connaissances actuelles fondamentales concernant le tabac et le tabagisme. Il est également destiné à éclairer le lecteur sur les phénomènes de dépendance en général, en se concentrant par essence sur le tabac. Une bonne connaissance des mécanismes pharmacologiques du tabagisme rend la compréhension de cette dépendance plus facile et favorise une meilleure prise en charge du patient par le médecin lors d'une consultation spécialisée en vue d'un sevrage. Vingt années d'expériences, de recherches et une participation dans l'enseignement ont permis de mettre l'accent sur ce que l'auteur considère être les « essentiels » de cette spécialité. L'avancée des connaissances permet de façonner la pratique courante de la tabacologie, à l'instar de marqueurs biologiques qui deviennent peu à peu des références en matière de dépistage ou de suivi. Les informations sur la dépendance, apportées par la génétique ainsi que le rôle primordial de l'expérimentation animale, mettent en évidence les causes psychologiques et pharmacologiques de la dépendance. Par le choix de son approche, cet ouvrage est accessible à tous, étudiants en médecine ou pharmacie, ou jeunes médecins inscrits en tabacologie gardant en mémoire les cours théoriques, ou encore praticiens déjà installés et expérimentés dans les disciplines de tabacologie, pneumologie ou traitant les maladies cardiovasculaires.
