Can you really feel years younger & make unexplained symptoms vanish with the click of a button — the “Airplane Mode” on your cell phone?

Advocate for safe technologies Nicolas Pineault used to think this all sounded like something only crazy people wearing tinfoil hats would say.

But the overwhelming amount of independent scientific evidence linking electromagnetic fields (EMFs) from wireless technologies with increased risks of cancer, infertility, insomnia, and depression sure has the uncanny ability to change a man’s mind.

The Non-Tinfoil Guide to EMFs is a simple and unconventional book that will teach you exactly how to reduce your exposure to this brand new 21st-century pollution without going back to the Stone Age.

You will learn:

What your smartphone, your wifi router and your microwave oven have in common (page 9)

Why policy makers and scientists all worldwide don’t agree about whether EMFs are dangerous or not (page 21)

Is Electro-Hypersensitivity as popularized in the TV show “Better Call Saul” real? Or is it all psychological? (page 62)

Why carrying a cell phone in your pocket can harm your fertility (201 studies prove it) (page 72)

The 1-click fix to reduce cellphone EMFs by 84% (page 142)

What is safer? Speakerphone, earbuds or a Bluetooth ear piece? (page 155)

The #1 worst source of EMF radiation at home (page 160)

Why baby monitors are worse than smartphones, and better alternatives (page 208)

More and more scientific evidence shows that cellphone radiation might be the new smoking. So why take chances?

Instead, read The Non-Tinfoil Guide to EMFs — the technological seat belt you might just need to use your new gadgets safely.

A real eye opener. An easy enough read that cuts through all the scientific jargon and statistics to make it easy for all to understand. Even though we are living in a scary world Nick offers easy ways to combat the emf mind fields we are challenged with daily. A highly recommended read!

Excellent, approachable summary to this complex topic

Reviewed in Australia on 17 December 2019

This book is an excellent, approachable summary of the scientific studies surrounding EMF radiation and it’s affect on our health. The author does an excellent job of making it approachable to non-scientists (most of us) while presenting important ideas by those who have studied and researched the topic for decades. Helpful footnotes provide links to dig deeper.

It presents a balanced and well-rounded view that I rarely see presented – however one that is ultimately quite disturbing once all the facts are in.

I applaud the author’s fun, conversational style that gets the information across without getting too heavily bogged down in scientific jargon. It’s the kind of book I’d gladly recommend to friends and family, and considering the damaging effects of EMFs, this is something I will increasingly be doing.

Easy to Read and Makes Sense.

Reviewed in Australia on 28 July 2019

I found this book relatively easy to read, though I admit I skipped over some of the more in-depth explanations. It also offers some guides to how to address the issue in your own environment. A good read all round and very useful.

Top notch informative book

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 20 May 2018

Verified Purchase

This is an informative book written in a conversational, light-hearted approach which is welcome, given the subject matter. There are numerous references to the studies the author refers to, so you can check these out yourself. EMFs are something I've been concerned about for years. My house is fully wired up, no wi-fi, smart anything, no microwave etc. My only wireless device was a mouse but I've now gone wired on that too after I saw a Youtube video demonstrating the radiation coming off a wireless mouse with an acoustimeter. I've gone wired both at home and at work.

The only part of the book that was missing for me was any nutrients recommended to protect against EMF exposure because they do exist, magnesium being one of them. Ironically, the book has an endorsement by Dr Joseph Mercola and Mercola has his own website with many recommendations for a nutrient approach.

The Non-academic Guide to EMFs

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 25 November 2018

Verified Purchase

Three stars awarded to the author for raising public awareness re the possible dangers to health of uncontrolled electro magnetic fields. No stars awarded for doing so in a rambling and unprofessional way. The jokey, matey tone may appeal to some but the wordage requires substantial editing throughout and detracts from what is presumably intended as an important message: to inform about EMF dangers to health. To be taken seriously as an investigative journalist, the references, for example, should be exact and links should lead directly to the precise information being cited in support of an argument, not just the title of e.g, a newspaper, leaving the reader to find it somewhere. Other referencing does not lead to anything at all but it looks impressive and scholarly to have a long reference list. The analogy with the health impact of smoking is useful, considering the fact that doctors used to recommend cigarettes before the link with cancer was finally proven. The ‘profit before health’ motif is certainly valid, and is nothing new. It relies on general public ignorance and in this case in our love affair with our new technological toys, on which we have all become reliant. This is not to cast doubt on the dangers of emfs and ‘smart’ technology, but there have been and always will be those who bask in the achievements of others to make a buck or two. The impression here is that the book is more about author promotion than the subject matter, A scholarly investigation into the topic it is not.

The book that EVERYONE should have and read!!! Incredibly well researched, easy to read and eye opening. I bought it first on kindle and then bought the hard copy version for my husband to read. I will be buying more for friends and family. Since reading the book we've has a building biologist assess our house, taken the house off wifi, installed dirty electricity filters, wear blue blocking glasses, sleep on earthing sheets and I work with my feet on an earthing mat. HUGE DIFFERENCES! The most important book I've read for years.

Inaccurate with lazy, terrible use of citations

Reviewed in the United States on 8 May 2019

Verified Purchase

As someone with a degree in Electrical Engineering who specializes in Electromagnetic radiation, I can say that there are some fundamental flaws with this book. For one, his presentation of electromagnetic waves is inaccurate. More alarming is his terrible use of footnotes, throwing in baseless claims which he passes off as citations, and then citing them with broken links or the home page of a blog with hundreds of pages.

He seperates EM waves into "RF", "Magnetic", "Electric", and "Dirty Electricity". In reality, RF just means EM waves in a range of frequency, DE means EM waves in a range of frequencies, and Magnetic/Electric are two components of EM waves. Further, he usually doesn't specify the frequencies for the power density, electric fields, or magnetic fields being discussed. It would have been more accurate to classify EM fields into different frequencies and their power density, magnetic field, and electric field.

What bothered me more was his lazy and reckless use of citations. He would often make bold, baseless claims, and then give them a citation as if they a scientific fact. Then, when you click on the citation, you get a broken link, or a random blog url. If you'd want to check his sources for his claims, you'd have to hope the blog is still online, and then sort through hundreds of articles hoping that you can find the claim he's flogging.

Here is an example:
"We are exposed to a lot of EMF radiation from man-made sources -- at levels some say are approximately 10 billion times higher than back in the 1960s[30]"

When you click on the citation, what you get is:
"olgasheean.com, page 5"

If you go to olgasheean.com, there is no "page 5". It is a website with different sections of articles, and no way of easily finding the above claim.

This is very important for a number of reasons. This book is meant as an introduction to what looks to be a very serious issue that many people are skeptical about by default. By failing to properly cite some of his more outrageous claims, or by mixing in third hand testimony from questionable sources, it damages his credibility. It's like saying "aliens killed Kennedy", and then putting the source for this claim as "google.com". Most people are going to roll their eyes and take whatever he says with a grain of salt.

If he really cares about spreading positive awareness on this issue instead of adding to the flames of skepticism, he needs to take his book more seriously. The citations should be link specifically to individual pages (or works, talks, etc) where his claims are clearly visible. They should be properly formatted so someone looking to review them don't have to go on wild goose chases to find them. If he cannot, he should remove them. He should also gain a better understanding of EM waves, as misrepresenting them just makes him look like he doesn't know what he's talking about.

There are some aspects of the book which are good, including the chapter with a list of studies on the topic of EM. But until the author takes his presentation of this topic seriously, I fear this book will do more harm than good on the subject of EM-related health effect awareness.

The Best Single Volume Book on EMF's

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 6 November 2018

Verified Purchase

EMF's pose a risk to everyone, yet most people know nothing about it. This book gives a good A-Z of the subject, the authors work is well balanced, research backed, not too heavy but detailed where it counts and written in a humorous style which is just what this subject needs. Perhaps a note on nutritional support, for example iodine rich foods (e.g. kelp) and magnesium would be a helpful addition. However, still a great book. This is also the best book to buy for someone who needs to know all the key facts but can't commit to reading volumes on the subject. If you only buy one book on the subject then this is a very good choice.
