M-Health: Emerging Mobile Health Systems (Topics in Biomedical Engineering. International Book Series) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)True, books on this type of subject are almost obsolete as fast as they get published because the field is changing so rapidly. However this monograph gives an excellent point of departure as health care professionals make the giant leap from the inefficient and ineffective world of paper to a world where the information they need is in their hands when they need it. The basics of a Personal Area Network and how it can interface with modern GPS technologies to save lives and take modern health care to the next level make M-Health an important first stop on the road to implementing mobile solutions.

Wireless Radiation Rescue:safeguarding your family from the risks of electro-pollution Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Fact: we are a world committed to technology, especially when technology provides immediate access to people and information. How many people do NOT own a microwave - or several at office, home, garage? Cell Phones and computers were not around a few years ago and now it seems as though even the youngest child who can carry and poke has a cell phone on their person 'just in case of an emergency'. And who can compete in the communications world without a computer on the desk, a laptop in the backpack, or an iPhone variation in the pocket/purse/belt? Can anyone remember the telephone that was on a cord in a room in the house where you actually had to walk to to answer? Is anyone without the various digital radios, timers, televisions with video games, etc.? That is just the way we live today - too little concerned about the side effects of 'convenience' and not concerned enough about the daily increasing amount of electromagnetic energy filling our breathing and living space - energy that has been proven to kill bees and diminish other wildlife as well as injure our sacred green earth.
'Kerry Crofton, PhD is a health educator, the director of WellBeing International, and a concerned parent.' So begins this informative book on safeguarding your family from the risks of electro-pollution. Her purpose is to alert a nation of device consumers to the possible risks to mental and physical and environmental health. She divides her book into steps as The 4 Step Plan: Know the Evidence, Know the Risks, Know the Safer Solutions, and Plan for the Future. What proceeds after her lengthy introduction is a conversational book accompanied by photographs illustrating the problems she is outlining, and lots of data gathering and presentation by experts in the field of the effects of exposure to electromagnetic pollution. It is startling and while it may not be absolutely documented with long term proof (not enough time has elapsed to know just how dangerous are our habits with these devices), Crofton at least is the New Age Paul Revere we ned to alert us to think about the consequences of our habits before the damage is physically perceived.
Some may find this book a bit simplistic and some may ignore the information as 'sensational' and not worthy of time spent reading. But, as Crofton alludes to in her book, just remember how not too long ago no one connected smoking with lung cancer....This book deserves our attention and our consideration. Dr. Crofton may be a needed harbinger. Grady Harp, October 10
