after 22 years of biophysics research and on the ground support/ activism in electrosensitization, now coming on at tidal wave force as the public denial about the toxifying effects of wireless communication radiation shatters and the coverup unravels…I have found no more useful, thorough and timely publication in this field than Katie Singer’s release of "Electronic Silent Spring"

This is a subject area which is so diverse and panoramic, it would swamp or sandbag the amateur writer leaving readers overwhelmed in instants. It is to this lady’s steep credit as a medical journalist deeply experienced in the toxicology and sensitization effects of the invisible hazards of the wireless age that she’s managed to almost…almost cover the whole gamut, slighting little and with the finesse that leaves both the novice recently coming into the field and the professional alike…impresssed, informed, up to speed and referenced. Good going girl…this is what we’ve needed. There isn’t a shelf it shouldn’t be on. (For those of you who might think this is a plant…I don’t know Katie Singer from Adam).

The Chinese and Thomas Edison were right. AC will fry you…and the first metabolism of effect is the meridians known in acupuncture and accupressure…perhaps additions to later works, but even in the field itself, this is only recently coming to light. Out of everything and everyone I’ve encountered in the two decade venture…myself a severely sensitized, once nearly dead, completely uninformed Electro Sensitive…Katie has gone straight to the head of a very difficult pile to climb…the list I keep of the major contributors in this field. Even if you didn’t understand it, I’d insist that you read this book…the beauty of her journalistic skill and humanism is…
This is definitely in the 3-star category–the good and the bad and just about equally balanced. On the bright side, there are a lot of first-person stories which do a great deal to illuminate the problem and the reality of the afflictions from unbridled proliferation of EMF. There are also good presentations clearly showing the government actions and non-actions for what they are: incompetence at best, but venal corruption being the more likely explanation. The book also has a great title which captures the concerns perfectly.

As a scientist myself, I can say that it may be a hallmark of mainstream science to deny anything that’s not written about in your textbooks, but that is not true science–that is closed-minded bullheadedness. A bona fide scientist has to be open to ideas that are either not in the textbooks, or even conflict with them! In fact, that trait is basically what distinguishes a scientist from a PR hack. That has been the pivotal issue with EMF and EHS, and Singer brings the message out kind of, but not well focused as she might.

Now here, unfortunately, while Singer’s heart is in the right place, she can’t help the reader with understanding the technical concepts since she does not understand them herself. Surely an explanation of exactly what is power density, what is SAR, and the relation between the two should be a pivotal chapter in such a book, but this is not addressed at all. She even gets wrong the basics of commercial technology, which would require reading trade magazines but does not require a physics background. She has an alarmist section about the dangers lurking in internet-over-powerlines, without realizing that this was an industry trial balloon that fell flat on its face, for feasibility reasons.
