Content:
*
Bibliographical data representing nearly the whole body of scientific
literature related to "cigarette smoking", "environmental
tobacco smoke", "mainstream smoke", "passive
smoking", "secondhand smoke", "sidestream smoke"
etc. (more than 25.000 items).
*
Descriptions of relevant statements, decisions, Public-Health and
political opinions; history of basic definitions ("addiction",
"dependence") and their alterations, for instance the revisions
of the "International Classification of Diseases".
*
Special data-collections, for instance the complete scientific work of
hundreds of authors which were engaged in the "passive
smoking"-research; this is an instrument to evaluate scientific
developments, to detect changes in study-design, results etc.).
* Some
chapters deal with related or relatable questions, from commonly used
scientific methods (epidemiological approaches, risk-estimations,
statistical techniques) to "Nicotine Replacement Therapy"
("NRT").
