Aims
and Scope
The Journal
of Smoking Cessation is the world's only publication devoted
exclusively to the treatment of smoking cessation. The journal
is targeted specifically to the area of smoking cessation at the “grass-roots” level,
focusing on observational studies that have practical implications
for those assisting smokers to quit.The
journal is a high quality peer-reviewed publication with an international
editorial board that has itself wide experience in the field of
smoking cessation.
The
Editorial Board encourages submissions of case studies, letters to
the editor and short studies. A regular feature of the journal is a
section entitled “What the research says … in one line ” This
feature enables access to a wide variety of publication and reviews
about research and relevant publications from elsewhere for busy clinicians.
The
journal will not publish articles supported by funding from the Tobacco
Industry. All
authors should clearly state their funding sources, state clearly conflicts
of interest and pharmaceutical industry support

the fonts have been embedded correctly and there
is no distortion in the artwork (e.g., lines
and fonts reproduce cleanly with no jagged lines
or fuzzy edges), as any such faults cannot be corrected
by the publisher.
