5.0 out of 5 stars A MUST read for any responsible person!, September 12, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: EMF Book: What You Should Know About Electromagnetic Fields, Electromagnetic Radiation & Your Health (Paperback)

I read the book a few years ago and was shocked at the lack of concern for this information in our daily lives. It is clear that we are all linked to electromagnetic fields and waves be it a hair dryer, an electric shaver, an electrical generator or a pencil sharpener. Yet it appears that few of us are actually armed with the knowledge of the "concerns" over the damaging issues with regards to our bodies, both young and old. I let my original copy slip through my hands, thank you Amazon.com for being an outlet to a great, but what I believe is a suppressed issue. I will be buying several for family and friends.

Sincerely,

This review is from: EMF Book: What You Should Know About Electromagnetic Fields, Electromagnetic Radiation & Your Health (Paperback)

I read this book years ago and could not find it ANYWHERE, despite a pretty dedicated search. No doubt, it is a hotly debated topic, much like the cell-phone emmissions issue. This is a must read for anyone who is trying to assume responsibility in their lives, the lives of their children or simply planning properly for a safe future. Many people avoid this type of "fact-based" study - it's a pain/pleasure thing. We gravitate to items that cause us pleasure and avoid things that could cause us pain. Reading this is not painful, it is very enlightening. Avoiding it could prove deadly - but heh, that's what we have health insurance for right? Kudos Amazon.

This is not a rabble rousing, hysterical book. It is well balanced and one that should be widely read. I used my EMF meter and found that the only significant risk in my house was the microwave, and it was way off the chart.

As a younger man I was a true believer in electric blankets. I now am 61 yhrs old, and I am experiencing late state leukemia. Don't use electric blankets.
