Health and high frequency electromagnetic fields / Rosmazita Hussain

In view of increasing proliferation of radio and microwave frequency fields to which people in the course of their every day life, questions have been raised regarding their safety. Obviously, these fields provide the society with invaluable services such as communication, navigation, defence and so...
