There has been some controversy surrounding a book he attemped Bate attempted to fund in the 1990s. In 1996, Roger Bate approached [[R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company]] for a grant of £50,000 to fund a book on risk, containing a chapter on passive smoking <ref>[http://legacy.library.ucsf.edu/cgitid/getdoc?tid=wov90d00&fmt=gif&ref=results&title=ENVIRONMENTAL%20RISKEnvironmental Risk] Proposal.

That same year he wrote the article "Is Nothing Worse Than Tobacco?," for the ''Wall Street Journal'' and in 1997, the ESEF published ''What Risk? Science, Politics and Public Health'', edited by Roger Bate which included a chapter on passive smoking. The [[Tobacco Institute]][http://ltdlimages.library.ucsf.edu/imagesb/b/r/q/brq08c00/Sbrq08c00.pdf] was involved with a chapter in the book.<ref>A.
