Arthur Firstenberg is a scientist and journalist who is at the forefront of a global movement to tear down the taboo surrounding this subject. After graduating Phi Beta Kappa from Cornell University with a degree in mathematics, he attended the University of California, Irvine School of Medicine from 1978 to 1982. Injury by X-ray overdose cut short his medical career. For the past thirty-eight years he has been a researcher, consultant, and lecturer on the health and environmental effects of electromagnetic radiation, as well as a practitioner of several healing arts.
“Few individuals today are able to grasp the entirety of a
scientific subject and present it in a highly engaging manner, in
plain English, without losing any of the details. In The Invisible
Rainbow, Firstenberg has done just that with one of the most
pressing but neglected problems of our technological age. This
book, which as a medical doctor I found hard to put down, explores
the relationship between electricity and life from beginning to
end: from the early eighteenth century to today, and from the point
of view of the physician, the physicist, and the average person in
the street. Firstenberg makes a compelling case that the major
diseases of civilization—heart disease, diabetes, and cancer—are in
large part related to the pollution of our world by
electricity.”—Bradley Johnson, MD, Amen Clinic, San Francisco
“The Invisible Rainbow is wonderful. Firstenberg has done his
research thoroughly. His book is easily readable and provocative
while being entertaining. A remarkable contribution.”—David O.
Carpenter, MD, director, Institute for Health and the Environment,
School of Public Health, State University of New York at Albany
“I found it to be a mystery unfolding and could not put it down. It
shines a new light on diseases that come from electrical
development, and addresses current environmental crises that only a
few yet realize are the consequence of electrosmog. This book is
very, very important.”—Sandy Ross, PhD, president, Health and
Habitat, Inc.
“I was stunned by this book. It is an extremely valuable document
about an increasingly widespread environmental health risk to which
we are all exposed. I am overwhelmed with admiration for what
Firstenberg has accomplished.”—William E. Morton, MD, DrPH,
professor emeritus, Oregon Health Sciences University
“Firstenberg is a pioneer in the sense that Rachel Carson was a
pioneer.”—Chellis Glendinning, PhD, author of When Technology
