Abstract

Smoking is a complex process influenced by social, environmental, psychologic, and biologic factors. This article explores the multiple determinants of smoking and how these variables interact to promote the persistence of smoking. Further examination of how smoking persistence varies in relation to several specific diseases is discussed.
