Like all the others in this collection, the document dated April 16, 1993 – letter from Sir Richard Doll to myself – was photocopied. Here I have substituted a scan of the original.
Because of the limitations of this website I have created a separate file for each page. * There are though some very good free PDF editing programs available, and the reader may use PDFHammer or PDFTK Builder to combine them if desired.

* I have since compressed the files so have condensed the format somewhat.
Today, I rescanned and re-uploaded most of the documents on this page. Sixteen years ago when it was created, disk space and download times were a big issue. Now they are not unless you are dealing with massive video files.
The rescans were from a photocopy I have on file, which is why the marking at the top of the first page of the original report has changed from red to black.
I do not have the original to hand and have a feeling I deposited it in the British Library. Whatever, that is not important. A couple of original documents are included, in particular the letter I received from Richard Doll and the one from Hans Eysenck. Neither of these were compressed, but I have cleaned the former up. One thing I noticed is that a page (possibly more than one) is missing from the final document, which is dated April 24, 1985. I thought there were only two pages, and published the first one and the second individually with a chart in between. I thought the second page was the last, but clearly it was not. Nancy Tait died in 2009, but from our brief correspondence I doubt she would have answered any further requests. In any case, I was given that letter by Edward Goldsmith, who died later the same year. It was a privilege to have known him.
