Abstract :
Ubiquitous electromagnetic fields in the human environment ask for definition of interaction mechanisms to understand hazards from exposure of human body. Even though industrial and medical applications of electromagnetic fields are present in the human society more than hundred years, the interaction mechanisms of electromagnetic fields and human being are still subject of research, and health and environmental hazards are still subject of public concern.
