Summary Annotation Why is it so difficult to quit smoking? Often the main obstacle is the fear of failing. The situation is no different for health professionals, especially doctors. They often experience fear of failure, or get discouraged, thinking they might not have the skills to help people quit smoking, but encouraging and supporting patients to stop smoking is one of the primary tasks of every healthcare professional. Moreover, the treatment of smoking is not complicated, if you have some basic skills: pharmacologic treatment, patientdoctor communication, and motivational interviewing. This book comes from daily practice; the author explains, in a very direct way, the art of tobaccology, with simulated examples and useful tricks. Current and relevant data on epidemiology, neurobiology of addiction, risks, comorbidity, and treatment are also provided.
