Risk-proportionate regulation can support smoking cessation while retaining consumer protections. This book breaks this down into applicable terms and provides insight for decision-makers, key stakeholders, and policymakers seeking to think more clearly about e-cigarette trends, harm reduction, and tobacco control.

In the third and final volume of Tobacco Regulation, Economics, and Public Health, the authors dive into ways to leverage the promise of e-cigarettes—a product that many consumers wish to use, unlike other existing cessation aids—to protect future generations from the impacts of smoking. An examination of current regulation of vaping shows why it often leads to unintended consequences and fails to achieve public health goals. Adopting a social welfare-based approach drawing on economics, policy analysis and regulatory science, the authors then explore how optimal e-cigarette policy might balance the risks and benefits of e-cigarettes.
