Preventing Youth Access to Tobacco

Preventing Youth Access to Tobacco examines the components of a preventive public health intervention directed at reducing the rate of youth tobacco use. This valuable book describes this innovative intervention, which involves making tobacco more difficult for young people to acquire and also calls for fines for possession of tobacco. It also gives you an essential review of current literature on this topic, shows you how to assess a community's readiness to change, and explains how to judge the comprehensiveness of school-based tobacco interventions.
