For decades, tobacco companies used misleading advertisements and disinformation to counter claims that their products were dangerous. This claim flew in the face of obvious connections between tobacco and heart and lung disease. This book examines the history of the deceptive ways that tobacco companies marketed their products to users, with a focus on teenagers and children to create "replacement smokers." The purpose of the series SMOKING AND VAPING ADDICTION is to examine various forms of nicotine use that are commonly used by teens and young adults, presenting information about the risks and dangers of taking this drug. The books in this series include information about the physical side effects and dangers of nicotine. The effect of nicotine use on society is also discussed. This series provides young readers with a greater understanding of the dangers of nicotine and how this drug has affected American culture and society over the past few decades.
