Synopsis:

Ex-smokers share the secrets of their success. No scholarly paraphernalia. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.

Reviews: Thirty-two not very inspiring stories from people who have quit smoking are collected in this volume by Farquhar (medicine, Stanford) and Spiller, a nutrition researcher at University of California, Berkeley. Tobacco heir Patrick Reynolds and actress Celeste Holm's experiences are included, with those of 30 other people of all ages and occupations. Better choices are Steve Allen's Passionate Nonsmoker's Bill of Rights ( LJ 9/15/89) and Robert S. Sobel's Quit for Life (LJ 12/88).
