Abstract
Viscusi’s new book, Smoke-Filled Rooms, presents itself as a critical analysis of the states’ settlements of their lawsuits against the cigarette companies. This framework serves Viscusi well, because it supports the narrow, dollars-and-cents approach he favors and excludes important public health considerations.
