What about some non-internet sources? There are loads. The following references can be obtained at any college or university library: National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements, NCRP Report No. 96, “Biological Effects and Exposure Criteria for Radiofrequency Electromagnetic Fields”; National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements, NCRP Report No. 119, “A Practical Guide to the Determination of Human Exposure to Radiofrequency Fields”; CRC Press, Inc., (Charles Polk, ed.Regulatory agencies, phone manufacturers and manufacturers have never said they are safe, and the FDA was the first regulatory agency to admit they did not know if wireless products are safe, however it appears that they did know.
What is SAR and SAR testing? Regulatory agencies have established Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) guidelines, standards and test procedures to define radiation levels that can be safely absorbed by the body. Many of these agencies are also responsible for encouraging telecommunications industry growth. SAR guidelines require testing distances less than 20 centimeters (approximately 7.8 inches) for compliance.Headsets allow you to use a phone without placing it against your head, and most people attach the phone to their belt, briefcase or purse using a belt clip or other mounting device.

Are other people exposed to radiation from my phone? A person within 7 centimeters (approximately 3 inches) from you is exposed to radiation emitted by your phone, and the amount of exposure significantly declines with each additional centimeter of distance.
Are pagers and other wireless products a health threat? Pager signals are of an extremely short duration and we have not discovered any debates about these products. Most cordless phones used at home have a much lower output power than mobile phones and are considered harmless, despite users spending more time on them than mobile phones. This has resulted in some scientists suggesting that cordless phones may be a health risk.Frequently reported symptoms to physicians and mobile phone manufacturers include headaches, vision and hearing difficulties, increased ear and facial temperatures, nausea, dizziness, tingling sensations on the skin, and numbness or irritation to the face and neck. Some studies have presented evidence that blood pressure increases when a using a mobile phone, and there has been litigation over cancer and brain tumors allegedly caused by mobile phone radiation.
Are mobile phones a health threat? a company involved with the radiation issues associated with wireless communication and laser products and services for many years, and just like the scientists and engineers around the world who are debating this important question, we know that mobile phone radiation enters the head and increases the brain temperature (thermal level) of the user while the phone is in use.Radiation is emitted from the area of a phone containing the radio system (transmitter and receiver), the internal antenna system, the earpiece, display and keypad.
