Summary: Very Technical and Statistical - not Heartfelt
Comment: I read the first half of this book, and was dying to stop reading. It was scientific and statistical, but I could not use that to quit. What I really needed, was Chapter 1 - OK here's an overview of how to quit . . . clear details to follow in subesequent chapters.

Rating: 5
Summary: The tobacco industry conspires to keep us smoking.
Comment: The tobacco industry has conspired for years to make tobacco more and more addictive. Ms. Brigham has given clear examples of this in her new book.

Rating: 5
Summary: Easy-to-read information on why it's so hard to stop smoking
Comment: Dr. Brigham has done an excellent job of explaining the grip which tobacco has on persons who use it. Her information is very matter-of-fact, when suddenly she drops in a dose of humor which makes the book very enjoyable. The many charts are also very informative -- when shown to my friends, they encouraged them to read the book.

Anybody who knows and cares about the health of a user of tobacco should read this book. Also, tobacco users themselves should read it to learn more about why they smoke or chew.
