Manual of Smoking Cessation provides the crucial knowledge
required if you are involved in helping smokers to stop. The manual
provides facts, figures, suggested interventions and sources of
further information to assist in providing evidence-based treatment
for smokers wishing to stop. This manual covers the core content
areas and key learning outcomes described in the Standard for
Training in Smoking Cessation (Health Development Agency, 2003).
Manual of Smoking Cessation is structured in two concise parts:
Part 1 provides essential information on smoking demographics,
along with the risks of smoking and the benefits of stopping; Part
2 offers a range of practical advice to implement with clients.
The Smoking Cessation Manual is an essential text for all those
involved in the provision of smoking cessation services, including
smoking cessation counsellors, nurses, pharmacists, doctors, health
promotion officers, dental professionals, and other members of the
health care team. The book is an invaluable resource for those
learning about smoking cessation, and a succinct aide-memoire to
those already practicing in the field.
The authors represent the ‘who’s who’ in the field of smoking
cessation and are affiliated to University College London and
Cancer Research UK (Andy Mc Ewen and Robert West), St Bartholomew’s
& Royal London School of Medicine and Dentistry (Peter Hajek),
and the University of Auckland (Hayden Mc Robbie).
