You
Are The Target -- Big Tobacco: Lies, Scams - Now The Truth
by Georgina Lovell
The book is directed at youth and aims to counter the tobacco industry's
mandate to recruit young people. It provides resource material for classroom
curriculums aimed at students 12 years and older. Students complete 5 hours
of classroom lesson plans and become Tobacco Awareness Peer Mentors, who
visit elementary school pupils to talk about tobacco "trickery".
The book covers many aspects of the tobacco industry's fraud and deception
that has perpetrated the public worldwide over the last 50 years.

This report summarises a year long investigation of over 10,000 pages of
previously secret internal tobacco company documents, mainly from Philip
Morris and British American Tobacco, who combined share most of the market
share in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC). These documents were downloaded
off a company website and BAT (British American Tobacco) documents were
obtained from the Guildford Depository in the United Kingdom.
