Description
Springer Science+Business Media Biological Effects And Health Implications Of Radiofrequency Radiation by James C. Lin , Sol M. Michaelson
The Study Of Electromagnetic Bioeffects Is Multidisciplinary; It Draws Heavily From The Disciplines Of Physics Engineering Mathematics Biol Ogy Chemistry Medicine And Environmental Health. This Book Is About These Disciplines And How They Mutually Integrate In The Study Of Electromagnetic Pathophysiology. Over Aperiod Of Years The Authors Have Become Increasingly Aware Of The Difficulty In Locating Information Concerning Interaction Of Electro Magnetic Energy And Biological Tissues. There Are Numerous Reports And Publications But No Single Comprehensive Source In The American Literature Where Such Information Is Readily Accessible. Regrettably Much Of The Importantinformation Is Contained In Government Documents And Reports Some Of Which Are Inaccessible Or Spread Through Many Diverse Journals Making Retrieval And Analysis Of The Material Difficult. Although This Book Is Primarily Clinically Oriented It Also Focuses On Those Biophysical Biochemical And Fundamental Molecular Studies And Findings That Provide The Basis For Understanding The Presence Or Absence Of Pathophysiological Manifestations Of Exposure To Radiofrequency Including Microwave Energies. Detailed Discussion And Analysis Of The Relevant Comprehensive Physics Engineering And Biophysics Are Con Tained In Chapters 2-5. Because The Treatment Is Multidisciplinary Wherever Possible Analy Sis Is Begun With Basic Background Information That May Appear Elementary To Some Readers But Is Essential To Understanding For Those From A Different Discipline. Most Confusion And Controversies That Exist In The Field Today Arise From Individuals Of One Discipline Not Appreciating Basic Facts Or Theories From Another.
