In the 1960s Huff was funded by the tobacco industry to produce a follow-up book titled ''How to Lie with Smoking Statistics'' that attempted to use statistical arguments to undermine claims that smoking was harmful to health. The book was never published but Huff has subsequently been criticised by statisticians for his involvement and the arguments advanced in draft copies.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.refsmmat.com/articles/smoking-statistics.html|title=The history of "How to Lie with Smoking Statistics"|website=www.refsmmat.com|access-date=2019-01-30}}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal|last=Gelman|first=Andrew|date=2012|title=Statistics for Cigarette Sellers|url=http://www.stat.columbia.edu/~gelman/research/published/ChanceEthics4.pdf|journal=CHANCE|volume=25|issue=3|pages=43–46|via=|doi=10.1080/09332480.2012.726563}}</ref>
