Non-Thermal Effects and Mechanisms between EMFs and Living Matter

by Dr. Magda Havas, BSc, PhD

November 5, 2010. 

An important collection of scientific research papers was just published in the European Journal of Oncology as a special ICEMS Monograph entitled “Non-thermal Effects and Mechanisms between Electromagnetic Fields and Living Matter.”

This volume is a must read for all federal agency scientists involved in establishing policy for non-ionizing electromagnetic exposure.

The book has four sections as follows:

Section A:  Biophysical Mechanisms (5 papers)
Section B:  Cellular Mechanisms and Tissue Effects (7 papers)
Section C:  In Vivo Effects (8 papers)
Section D:  Epidemiology (4 papers)
