吸烟导致的死亡人数超过任何其他成瘾,我们知道,成瘾始于儿童和青年时期。我们都同意年轻人不应该吸烟,但怎样才能做到这一点呢?他们会觉得哪些预防信息很有吸引力?每天价值超过1000万美元的烟草广告对年轻人有什么影响?我们能否负责任地和有效地限制他们获得烟草制品?这些问题以及更多的问题都在医学研究所编写的《无烟成长》一书中得到了解决,这本书旨在帮助每个人了解围绕青少年和烟草使用的令人不安的问题。《无烟成长》对尼古丁的影响和成瘾过程进行了通俗易懂的解释,并记录了如何寻找有效的方法来防止儿童和青少年吸烟、嚼烟、吐烟和吸鼻烟。它涵盖了最近为限制青少年获得烟草而采取的行动的结果,并讨论了控制或禁止烟草销售的方法、青少年的价格敏感性以及支持和反对将税收作为预防烟草使用战略的理由。对有争议的烟草广告领域进行了彻底的审查。有了明确的公共行动指导方针,每个人都可以通过阅读这本全面而引人注目的书中的信息并采取行动而受益。
Tobacco use kills more people than any other addiction and we know that addiction starts in childhood and youth. We all agree that youths should not smoke, but how can this be accomplished? What prevention messages will they find compelling? What effect does tobacco advertising--more than $10 million worth every day--have on youths? Can we responsibly and effectively restrict their access to tobacco products? These questions and more are addressed in Growing Up Tobacco Free, prepared by the Institute of Medicine to help everyone understand the troubling issues surrounding youths and tobacco use. Growing Up Tobacco Free provides a readable explanation of nicotine's effects and the process of addiction, and documents the search for an effective approach to preventing the use of cigarettes, chewing and spitting tobacco, and snuff by children and youths. It covers the results of recent initiatives to limit young people's access to tobacco and discusses approaches to controls or bans on tobacco sales, price sensitivity among adolescents, and arguments for and against taxation as a prevention strategy for tobacco use. The controversial area of tobacco advertising is thoroughly examined. With clear guidelines for public action, everyone can benefit by reading and acting on the messages in this comprehensive and compelling book.
