[Regarding Early History of Tobacco Research in United Kingdom and Germany]
Abstract
Chronicles history of industry and industry-government collaborative studies of tobacco and tobacco health in United Kingdom starting in 1957. Names multiple industry organizations, research advisory committees, and early contractors. Describes rationale and political reasons for strategic reorganization for research on chemistry, addiction, nicotine, tobacco substitutes, etc. Indicates destruction of source documents after microfilming and production of reports "for public consumption". Alludes to smokers' compensation and other epidemiologic studies. Constitutes difficult-to-read handwritten meeting minutes (missing pages).
