吸烟在1900年是一种不常见的行为，在整个世纪以流行病的速度增长，在1964年达到顶峰，当时超过40%的美国成年人吸烟。从那时起，吸烟人数以缓慢但稳定的速度下降，到1988年下降到约占所有成年人的28%或4900万吸烟者。每年，大约有435，000名美国人，即每五个死亡中就有一个是由吸烟造成的。如果目前的趋势继续下去，到2000年，22%的美国人（4300万人）仍将吸烟。妇女、黑人和受教育程度低的美国人将以不成比例的高比例吸烟。
Cigarette smoking, an uncommon behavior in 1900, increased at an epidemic pace throughout this century, peaking in 1964 when more than 40% of all adult Americans smoked. Since that time, smoking has decreased at a slow but steady rate, falling to about 28% of all adults or 49 million smokers by 1988. Each year, approximately 435,000 Americans, or one of every five deaths, will result from smoking. If current trends continue, 22% of Americans (43 million people) will still be smoking in the year 2000. Women, blacks, and poorly educated Americans will be smoking at a disproportionately high rate.
