This book contains additional items submitted for the record to the hearings dealing with legislation designed to improve public awareness about the health effects of smoking. The materials contain letters from health professionals and organizations concerned with prevention of heart disease, lung disease, dental problems and cancer. Research is highlighted that links smoking to various health problems, along with discussions about the type, amount, and content of cigarette advertising. Statements from those opposed to the proposed legislation are included, citing inconclusive research and the rights of consumers to make an informed decision. (JAC)
