Text analysis
The functional style of this article is publicist style.
This article was published in December 8, 2013 in the newspaper «New York Times». It was written by Amy L. Fairchild and James Colgrove. Amy L. Fairchild is a professor, and James Colgrove is an associate professor, of sociomedical sciences at the Mailman school of Public Health at Columbia.
The headline of this text is «The Case for Tolerating E-Cigarettes».
The main problem of the text is reduce or not reduce the usage of E-Cigarettes in public places and restrict or not restrict their sales. Also there is one question in this article: does the usage of the e-cigarettes help to reduce the bad consequences of smoking.
Los Angeles is moving to restrict e-cigarette don’t generate smoke and, while not proved to be entirely sale for users, are undoubtedly less hazardous than tobacco cigarettes.
Authors pay our attention to research that e-cigarettes may be better at helping to sustain smoking cessation than pharmaceutical products like nicotine patches or gums.
Also authors wrote about that the history shows that it’s better to minimize the resulting harm than exterminate it.
Besides there is very interesting point of view in this article: most experts consider nicotine harmful only at extremely high doses. I am totally disagree with it, because anyway it is bad for our health .
Stylistic features of the text:
If e-cigarettes can reduce, even slightly, the blight of six million tobacco-related deaths a year, trying to force them out of sight is counterproductive.
In my opinion, it is very topical problem in our days. People always try to improve life conditions and to eliminate such problems as smoking, drugs and etc. And I think that all methods are good.
