Clinical Treatment Guide For Tobacco Use and Dependence [PDF ebook] 

Cigarette smoking continues to be a leading cause of preventable disease and death in the United States, costing our nation approximately $193 billion each year in health care costs and lost productivity. Given the substantial health and economic burdens caused by the use of cigarettes, much effort has gone into the development of effective smoking cessation programs, such as medications, counseling, telephone help lines and self-help groups. However, even with the widespread knowledge of the health consequences of smoking and the availability of cessation support services, many people continue to smoke. This book presents a clinical treatment guide for tobacco use and dependence.
