When a cigarette goes out, the smoke disappears. But do all its pollutants really disappear?Third-Hand Smoke: The Pollutant That Remains When the Cigarette Goes Out explores one of the most recent and least understood phenomena of tobacco-related pollution. Using clear language grounded in scientific evidence, this book explains how nicotine and other toxic compounds can linger for months or years on walls, furniture, clothing, vehicles, and household dust-even when there is no longer any visible smoke.The book analyzes the invisible chemistry of these residues, the main routes of exposure, the potential risks to children, pregnant women, and other vulnerable groups, as well as the role of vapers and new forms of environmental pollution. It also addresses monitoring, prevention, and control strategies that help create healthier environments.An invitation to discover that some of the most significant forms of pollution are not always visible.
