Review

`Mark S. Gold, MD, the most prolific and brilliant of the addiction experts writing today, has devoted the fourth volume of his impressive books in the Drugs of Abuse series to tobacco. Here, in one small, comprehensive, and readable book is an authoritative treatment of topics ranging from the history of tobacco in the US economy to the effects of tobacco use on the mind and the body....This book provides valuable information that every physician can use.'
