"In
a blue haze"
Smoking and Baha'i Ethics

|
The medical and
socio-political aspects of smoking have long been under discussion,

Nevertheless, the theme of smoking is secondary in this book.
Tobacco consumption is used to illustrate and delineate the
contours of Baha'i ethics, a religious ethics which has only
very recently become the subject of academic analysis. |
