I just read, well... listened to on tape to be precise, an  
interesting book called Smoke Screen by Kyle Mills. It's a novel  
about the tobacco industry. Some of it is rather fanciful and  
unrealistic, but Mills presents very articulate arguments on both  
sides of the tobacco issue. We've had several discussion, or perhaps  
one long ongoing conversation, here on Lactnet about the similarities  
between tobacco and pharmaceutical/formula industries and between the  
breastfeeding and anti-tobacco movements. From that perspective this  
is an interesting read for anyone looking for some light  
entertaining, but also thought provoking summer reading.
