The Wireless Elephant in the Room: An Overview of the Rapidly Emerging Public Health Issue from Cell Phones, Wireless Devices and Wireless Infrastruct, Paperback/Camilla R. G. Rees

Descriere

The Wireless Elephant in the Room concisely conveys the well-established risks from cell phones and wireless technologies, the tremendous biological stress that acute and chronic exposures create, especially to children, and the big plans wireless companies have to blanket us even further in this inescapable, harmful radiation throughout our homes and neighborhoods, and even from space, all the while deliberately addicting us to electronic technologies and driving up health costs. The author, one of America's leading health advocates, expert in the biological and health effects of electromagnetic fields, asks, "Why should we, in essence, be agreeing to be the collateral damage of the wireless industry's misguided values that are damaging humans, animals and nature, and especially children, on an unprecedented scale, for their commercial gain?" The Wireless Elephant in the Room is a highly informed synopsis of society's new public health predicament and a powerful contribution to public education on this topic. It is chock full with research citations and quotes from leading scientific experts, including from Harvard, Columbia, Yale and other universities. The Wireless Elephant in the Room is a 'must have' for couples hoping to conceive, expectant mothers, parents, teachers, school administrators, employers, health insurers, social workers, psychologists and psychiatrists, and everyone with a chronic illness, including cancer patients, and their doctors. No one taught doctors about the biological and health effects of electromagnetic fields in medical school. It is a new public health issue. Best to give them all copies. Sometimes the solution to a mysterious or never-resolving health problem (including learning problems) can be as simple as using technology in a safer way. Learn what conditions have been linked to wireless radiation, where you can go for help to measure and minimize exposures, and how to quickly get further up to speed on the basics of safer living
