This book tracks Americans’ changing attitudes about smoking over the last century. It carefully examines how Americans came to understand the health risks of smoking, how the tobacco industry sought to reframe smoking, and how public support for tobacco control affected lawsuits, elections, and public policies.
Public Opinion, Public Policy, and Smoking tracks Americans’ changing attitudes about cigarette smoking over the last century. With data from more than five thousand public and privately conducted polls, this book carefully examines how Americans came to understand the health risks of smoking; how the tobacco industry sought to reframe smoking; and how public opinion support for tobacco control affected lawsuits, elections, and public policies. This book tests several well-known linkage models that connect public opinion with public policy. It shows that conventional wisdom about public opinion and tobacco control policy is often mistaken. This book offers the first in-depth look at American public opinion and cigarette smoking during the last century.

Thomas R. Marshall is professor of political science at the University of Texas at Arlington where he teaches classes in public opinion, campaigns and elections, and American government.
