This groundbreaking book fills a significant gap in research into smoking and tobacco control in China. In recent decades, limited studies have delved into the profound impact of geographical factors and their role in shaping the prevalence of smoking and the responses to the tobacco epidemic in the country. Recognizing this gap, the book undertakes a comprehensive investigation into the significance of national, regional, and local environmental factors that influence smoking in China. It explores how geographical, social, and institutional contexts have shaped the implementation and success of tobacco control initiatives, placing smoking trends in China within a broader global context. The authors skillfully synthesize Chinese and Western research on the smoking epidemic, with a unique emphasis on the importance of environmental factors and Chinese cultural perspectives in understanding smoking behavior and the challenges faced by tobacco control efforts, particularly in reconciling them with Chinese economic policies. The book is designed to appeal to a diverse audience, including academic scholars, policymakers, and professionals in the fields of geography, epidemiology, sociology, and public health. Its insights and analysis will be of immense value to a wide range of readers interested in understanding the complex dynamics of smoking in China and exploring effective strategies for tobacco control in this rapidly evolving nation.
