520 Cell phone radiation is a national emergency. Scientist
Devra Davis presents an array of recent and long-
suppressed research which shows that the most popular
gadget of our age damages DNA, breaks down the brain's
defenses, and reduces sperm count while increasing memory
loss, the risk of Alzheimer's disease, and even cancer.
The growing brains of children make them especially
vulnerable--and half of the world's four billion cell
phones are used by people under twenty. Davis takes
readers through the dark side of this trillion-dollar
industry. Health experts have long been frozen out of
policy-making decisions about cell phones; federal
regulatory standards are set by the cell phone industry
itself. One secret memo reveals their war plan against
reports of cell phone dangers. As this call to action
shows, we can make safer cell phones now. Why put our
children at risk of a devastating epidemic of brain
illness?--From publisher description.
