This is the source of what has become todays exposure standard. This document describes in detail the stage that has been set for our current thermal effects only standard.

Reactionary, but compelling reporting.

As significant for Americans in the 1990's as Rachel Carson's Silent Spring was in the 1960's. This book warrants it's own page.

Cross Currents describes the meeting of two opposing trends: the rapid rise of electromedicine, which promises to unlock the secrets of healing, and the parallel rise of electropollution, which poses a serious environmental danger.
In this groundbreaking book, Robert Becker, M.D., explains how new and nontraditional healing techniques such as acupuncture, homeopathy, visualization, hypnosis, and electrotherapy work through an invisible common source -- the body's electrical system.
But at the same time that exciting insights into how to use the body's inherent healing abilitiese are gained, electromagnetic fields radiating from powerlines, radar, microwave ovens, VDTs, satellites, radios, and even electric blankets are attacking our bodies' resources. Researchers are finding that this radiation correlates with increases in cancer, birth defects, depression, learning disabilities, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Alzheimer's Disease, AIDS, and Sudden Infant Death Syndrome.
"The single best guide on electrobiology [now] available." -- Louis Slesin, editor of Microwave News

In this landmark book, Robert O. Becker, M.D., a pioneer in the field of bioelectric science, presents a fascinating look at the role electricity plays in healing, challenging the traditional mechanistic model of the body. Colorful and controversial, this is a tale of engrossing research, scientific and medical politics, and breakthrough discoveries that offer new possibilities for fighting disease and harnessing the body's healing powers..

Represents the current Radiofrequency Radiation Exposure Guidelines for the general population. Includes MPE (Maximum Permissible Exposure), for towers, mobile and hand held units operating at both "traditional" 800-900 MHz, and for newer over 1.5 GHz models. The exposure standard is in Appendix A. Get a copy in either WordPerfect or PDF format.

(Aka: IEEE-ANSI C95.1-1991) Describes what originated in NCRP Report No. 86, and was the basis for exposure guidelines prior to the FCC being mandated to take responsibility by the Telecommunications Act of 1996.

Extremely credible history of the microwave controversy, highly recommended. Read this book if you really want to know about the origins of this controversy. Still relevant, despite the copyright date.

The highly controversial National Academy of Sciences / National Research Council report, that allegedly cites research showing a clear correlation between electromagnetic fields and certain forms of cancer, to declare that there is no danger.

This is the recently updated edition.
Electromagnetic Fields (EMFs) are generated by all electrical devices, such as lights, appliances, powerlines, and office equipment. The health risks have been covered up by the power companies, the military, and even teh White House itself, for when Scientists at the Environmental Protection Agency wanted to label EMFs as a "Class B carcinogen" (like cigarettes) they were prevented from doing so.
Now the truth about the EMF-cancer connection is being told. This bok is an invaluable guide to the risks of EMFs and the steps you can take to protect yourself and your family, including:
- How saving energy can cut your exposure to EMFs.
- Which home appliances and office machines are safe and unsafe.
- How to maintain a safe distance from various sources of EMFs.
- How to arrange your work space to cut exposure to EMFs.
- Where to place children's to keep them out of electromagnetic fields.
- How to avoid EMF exposure in your neighborhood.

Your Community Guide to Cellular Phone Towers is a book, published in cooperation with the Communication Workers of America. This is THE resource book for any individual or community that is concerned about getting more information than what the Cellular Carrier is providing. An absolute must, and a give-away at the asking price.

Check out the extensive, comprehensive, up-to-date bibliography of EMF references, available at this site. Follow the link and check the link to EMF Bibliography. When last I checked, this was by far the most comprehensive on-line bibliography on EMF/EMR bioeffects I had seen. Highly recommended.
