Cell phones and the dark deception : [find out what you're not being told-- and why

Cell Phones and The Dark Deception is a powerful, heavily referenced, easy-to-understand non-fiction book that scrutinizes the evidence around the lingering question: Are Cell Phones Really Safe? Prompted by a growing hunch, following years of an incessant influx of seemingly unrelated health disorders experienced by her late husband, author Carleigh Cooper began an exhaustive study researching the effects of electromagnetic radiation on the human body. Steve had spent 16 years building power microwave amplifiers for cell tower base stations and prior to his tragic death at age 48, he was diagnosed with toxic encephalopathy: brain damage due to carcinogenic exposure, with a prognosis of brain tumor/cancer. There seemed to be a direct correlation between his myriad of symptoms and his years of microwave radiation exposure. Research proved there was. By incorporating pieces of her own personal story with numerous scientific references, Cell Phones and The Dark Deception becomes a distinctively moving annex that not only identifies a serious problem that cell phone users have a right to be aware of, but one that brings the potential outcome of its effect into a painful reality. From the beginning, Carleigh’s genuine sincerity and unreserved narrative will engage you and capture your heart, making this informative book difficult to put down. Cell Phones and The Dark Deception was the first publication ever written to reveal the true nature of the cell phone industry, to expose startling secrets from industry insiders, to disclose serious and unknown health risks, to release the most comprehensive collection of alarming scientific reports & facts that prove adverse health effects from radio frequency microwave radiation exposure, to identify various cell towers and inform the public of their physical impact on the human body, and to divulge the numerous deceptions that have successfully misled cell phone users into believing that cell phones are safe. After reading Cell Phones and The Dark Deception there will be no more speculation; all of your uncertainties will be answered. You will finally understand why there are so many contradicting reports; why real cell phone dangers are being withheld from the public; why you are led to believe that the only potential health risks from cell phone use are those of brain tumors or brain cancer; and why top scientific researchers and even some governments are warning parents to keep cell phones away from children. Since cell phones are here to stay, the final chapter provides you with 20 simple safety tips guaranteed to help you reduce your exposure and minimize your risk. "As a concerned physician, I have researched electro-pollution and its effects since cell phones were first introduced. I commend Carleigh for her courage and diligence in writing this long awaited, much needed and well documented expos about the hazards that non-ionizing microwave radiation pose to living systems.She also makes us aware of the lack of regulation." Carla A. Visha, M.D. Cell Phones and The Dark Deception is a must read for every cell phone user. It's a comprehensive, heavily referenced, easy-to-understand non-fiction book that scrutinizes the evidence to resolve a question that's been lingering since 1993: Are Cell Phones Safe? After years of an incessant influx of seemingly unrelated health disorders experienced by her late husband, Carleigh Cooper began an exhaustive search to identify his problem and pinpoint the cause. Steve had been building and testing high power microwave amplifiers for cell tower base stations for more than a decade when he started suffering from chronic headaches, nausea, fatigue, and convulsive vomiting bouts. As time went on, the list of abnormalities grew and so did the severity of his symptoms. Prior to his tragic death at age 48, Steve was diagnosed with toxic encephalopathybrain damage due to carcinogenic exposure. The prognosis? Brain tumor or brain cancer. There seemed to be a direct correlation between his myriad of symptoms and his long-term, close-range exposure to non-ionizing radiofrequency microwave radiation (i.e. wireless communication signals). Carleigh's research proved there was. By peppering pieces of her personal story atop the nearly 300 references from world renowned scientists, biophysicists, epidemiologists, and industry-hired experts, Cell Phones and The Dark Deception becomes a distinctively moving annex that not only identifies a serious problem cell phone users have a right to know, but one that brings the potential outcome of its effect into a painful reality. Carleighs sincerity and transparency right from the beginning will capture your heart and make this informative publication difficult to put down. Cell Phones and The Dark Deception is one of the most comprehensive compilations of scientific data on wireless communication signals and how they impact the human body. This is the first work of its kind to expose alarming truths about the cell phone industry; to leak insider secrets; to identify 25 serious and unknown exposure-related health risks; to provide insight on cell tower regulation, placement, and hazards; to blow the lid off numerous deceptions that have led cell phone users to believe their mobile devices are safe; and to offer safety tips proven to reduce exposure and minimize risk. After reading Cell Phones and The Dark Deception there will no longer be any speculation. All your questions will be answered and you will finally understand why there are so many contradicting reports; why a multitude of health risks are being concealed; why the public is being led to believe brain tumors and brain cancer are the only threats; and why top scientific researchers, even some governments, are warning parents to keep cell phones away from children. There's no denying that cell phones are here to stay, but while the industry believes users are willing to assume some level of risk, you have a right to know exactly what those risks are. If exposure-related symptoms aren't recognized as such, prolonged exposure will likely result in irreversible damage. Ignoring the facts doesn't change them.
