No one can claim to be up to speed on the current science regarding the human health effects of electro-magnetic exposure, not to mention industry and government agency collusion to cover it up, unless they’ve read at least some of these books.

Doubt is Their Product: How Industry Scientists Manufacture Uncertainty and Threaten Your Health
by David Michaels
Gives a lively and convincing history of how clever, industry-funded public relations has blocked one public health protection attempt after another – DDT, lead, asbestos, nuclear waste, electro-smog, you name it. Creation of uncertainty is the basic strategy of the ‘product defense industry’ exposed by a former federal regulator.

The Body Electric: Electromagnetism and the Foundation of Life
by Robert O. Becker and Gary Selden
In this classic breakthrough book, Becker, an orthopedic surgeon at the time working for the Veterans Administration, describes his research into “our bioelectric selves”.
Cross Currents
by Robert O. Becker
This book examines and classifies the methods of electromedicine: from ‘minimal energy techniques’ which use only the mind and include meditation, visualization, hypnosis, placebo and religious experience, through ‘energy reinforcement techniques’ which add a small amount of energy and include homeopathy and acupuncture, to ‘high energy transfer techniques’ which use larger amounts of energy than the body is used to and include applied electric and magnetic forces for cancer and bone healing.
The latter part of the books begins with the earth’s natural electromagnetic field, and continues to describe how we have polluted the electromagnetic environment. Includes the general effects of microwaves and powerlines, and has specific notes on the many electric appliances we use: razors, electric blankets, clocks, heaters etc.

Cellphones and Brain Tumors: 15 Reasons for Concern, Science, Spin and the Truth Behind Interphone by Lloyd Morgan
Groups affiliated with the report include Powerwatch and the EM Radiation Research Trust in the UK, and the EMR Policy Institute, ElectromagneticHealth.org and The Peoples Initiative Foundation in the US.
The exposé discusses research on cellphones and brain tumors and concludes:
* There is a risk of brain tumors from cellphone use;
* Telecom funded studies underestimate the risk of brain tumors, and;
* Children have larger risks than adults for brain tumors.
This report, sent to government leaders and media today, details eleven design flaws of the 13-country, Telecom-funded Interphone study. The Interphone study, begun in 1999, was intended to determine the risks of brain tumors, but its full publication has been held up for years. Components of this study published to date reveal what the authors call a ‘systemic-skew’, greatly underestimating brain tumor risk.
Public Health SOS: The Shadow Side of the Wireless Revolution
by Magda Havas and Camilla Rees
A Resource for Concerned Citizens.
We begin with a checklist summarizing exactly what is happening to peoples’ health globally from exposure to electromagnetic fields. This is a useful section to catch potential symptoms early so that you can take steps to remediate your environment.
Hear concern about electromagnetic pollution from experts close to the science. The public’s support is called for now so our government starts paying attention to this important public health subject and changes currently non-protective exposure guidelines to be biologically based.
Wireless Radiation Rescue
Safeguarding your family from the risks of electro-pollution.
Not sleeping well, headaches, dizziness, tingling in the hands, ringing in the ears, electro-sensitivity, low immunity, or cardiac symptoms?
Wireless Radiation Rescue reveals how these and other conditions can result from exposure to radiation from cell phones, cordless phones, wireless Internet access and other devices we use every day.
Warning: The Electricity Around You May Be Hazardous to Your Health

Water, Electricity and Health
By Alan Hall
Protecting yourself from electrostress at home and at work
This guide helps readers to understand how electrostress affects them. It casts new light on the secrets of water, life and electricity, and shows how steps can then be taken to neutralize electrostress and increase one’s energy. Electricity is basic to modern life. Electric appliances, such as TVs, mobile phones and computers proliferate. Webs of electric wiring surround people at home, whilst pylons, power lines and transformers form a national grid. These electric webs and appliances generate electromagnetic fields which can harm health and life through electrostress. When physicist Alan Hall found that underground streams linked a stricken home to nearby power cables, the family moved to recover their health. He then asked how water transmits electrostress. In this book, he details how he discovered the nature of water as the bearer of life and as the carrier of death. His discovery of biodynamic fields is applied to countering the harmful effects of electromagnetic fields.
