The story of tobacco's fortunes seems simple: science triumphed over addiction and profit. Yet the reality is more complicated?and more political. Historically it was not just bad habits but also the state that lifted the tobacco industry. What brought about change was not medical advice but organized pressure: a movement for nonsmoker's rights.
