Popis: | This is a historical review of the long effort to establish the link between cigarette smoking and lung cancer. The author examines why it was so difficult to attract attention to the vital scientific and public health issues inherent in this linkage focusing on the apathy of the health professionals concerned and their reasons for not accepting or promoting the evidence relating lung cancer to smoking.
