Title: The Global War on Tobacco
Description: Tells the story of the World Health Organization Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC)--the first collective global response to the causation of avoidable chronic disease--from its start as an unlikely civil society proposal to its enactment in 178 countries as of June 2014. Wipfli also reveals how globalization offers anti-tobacco advocates significant cooperative opportunities to share knowledge and address cross-border public health problems. --From publisher description.
