{"product_id":"smoke-in-their-eyes-michael-pertschuk-9780826513908","title":"Smoke in Their Eyes: Lessons in Movement Leadership from the Tobacco Wars","description":"The classic American struggle between the public interest and corporate interests is perhaps nowhere better illustrated than in the decades-long struggle between the tobacco industry and advocates for public health. The failure of the \"global settlement\" legislation is now viewed by many public health experts as an historic missed opportunity, and in this extraordinary book, \u003ci\u003eSmoke in Their Eyes, \u003c\/i\u003e Michael Pertschuk brilliantly describes the forces brought to bear. \u003cp\u003eA lifelong public health leader and tobacco control advocate, Pertschuk provides uncommon insight into the movement and its opposition. Questions that reveal themselves here can be applied to public advocacy as a whole: how can movement leaders gauge and best employ popular support? Who has legitimacy to speak on behalf of a particular public cause? And perhaps most crucially, how is it possible for those whose cause is a moral one to strike political compromise? With a narrative as compelling as the issues it raises, \u003ci\u003eSmoke in Their Eyes\u003c\/i\u003e will be of great interest to everyone from students of public advocacy and political science to general readers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michael Pertschuk\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0826513905\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780826513908\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Vanderbilt University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/30\/2001\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 356\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.51lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 6.34w x 1.11d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/19\/2001 pg. 59","brand":"Michael Pertschuk","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48013817544959,"sku":"9780826513908","price":79.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_da310de8-76ec-452d-8b95-64ab8af79cc3.jpg?v=1767744957","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/smoke-in-their-eyes-michael-pertschuk-9780826513908","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
