Reviews

Your book and the statistics compiled therein are assisting me and 22 other state attorney generals in our pursuit of the tobacco industry to recoup billions of dollars spent by the taxpayers to pay the medicaid costs incurred as a result of death and illness caused by tobacco. Your studies are contributing to the demise of political support of the tobacco industry. My actions, coupled with the ammunition supplied in part by your work, will result in new measures to curtail smoking by our children and begin to tackle this health catastrophe in our country. Your book is a must-read for all government officials litigating against the tobacco industry. -Frank J. Kelley Attorney General, State of Michigan
