The Invisible Rainbow: A History of Electricity and Life Paperback – Illustrated, February 20, 2020

WOW! I recommend this book to everyone! The author explains things in a way that is easily understandable. There's a ton of information. He provides a large index to cross check his hundreds of sources. Most of all, the author will open the readers eyes to the modern-day dangers saturating every part of our world. Are your flu symptoms really coming from a virus? Heart disease? Diabetes?

Ignore the 1-star reviews that shout “Bogus! Unproven! Correlation doesn’t mean causation!” This book has references that fill 1/4 of its volume. Support your hysteric “bogus” claims with this much amount of reference, then maybe I will believe that you’re not just parroting ignorant “facts” you learned from Wikipedia. This book is very well written, talks about the history of vitally important subjects, facts about electricity, radio, its relationship to human body and life that none of us even the well educated ones ever heard about, because our education is not based on real science but on dogma and perverted knowledge that’s convenient for money and power seeking agencies. This book provides quotes from the 19th century doctors and scientists that exemplify true scientific method and questioning, gathering of data and building of hypothesis that is not dependent on profit seeking. That kind of environment is almost completely gone today, hence you have the “debunked!” “Fake science!” and such voices from the ignorant crowd kept in ignorance by their masters. Shame!This book is a must read for any person who likes to use his/her brain! We must know the truth. The truth will make us stronger.

Great book. Very educational.

PHENOMENONAL. I have 6000 books in my personal library and this one is on my shelf as a favorite to be passed on to future generations. I would love to see an updated version especially with current controversial issues. Covid symptoms are identical to radiation poisoning and the lockdowns were used as an excuse to install thousands of cell and Gwen Towers that bypassed density regulations without any safety studies. HAARP, SMART everything, phones, electric cars and other military industrial complex tech are turning the planet into a big microwave oven and we wonder why cancer and neuro-inflammation diseases are rampant. This book should be required reading of every healthcare professional and high school student.

*"The Invisible Rainbow" by Arthur Firstenberg is a fascinating exploration of the history of electricity and its profound effects on living beings and the environment. Thought-provoking and meticulously researched, this book connects the dots between technological advancements and their unintended consequences. A must-read for anyone interested in the intersection of science, health, and nature.*

Fascinating book that brings attention to a much needed field of study. Very educational and historical which was enjoyable.However, there are some wild claims that lack evidence. The author may have an ideological bend that skews some of his perspectives leading him into confirmation bias a bit.Still, a thoroughly enjoyable and well-written book, but some claims need to be verified or discarded completely.

Firstenberg's 'Invisible Rainbow', in addition to being a fascinating read from a historical perspective, is much more than a mere telling of the history of electricity. Stunning in it's scope, it constitutes an absolutely devastating, paradigm-shattering critique of man's obsession with modern technology, right up there with Jerry Mander's 'In the Absence Of the Sacred'.The book is extremely well researched and copiously referenced with an index of over 145 pages of cited source material. In it you'll learn of the well documented but heretofore untold links between electromagnetic pollution and the 'big three' killers – diabetes, cancer, and heart disease, which as the author notes, barely warranted a reference in pre-industrial medical texts.You'll also learn about the last country to adopt an electrical grid – Bhutan, whose populous was still traveling mostly by horseback as late as the 1990's, and the profound effect this sudden adoption on a wide scale of the countries electrical infrastructure has had on it's people's health in just a few short decades.You'll see how and why it is the ever-growing sea of artificial electromagnetic frequencies (EMFs) the world is now swimming in, and not climate change as it is assumed, that is the greater culprit behind the growing loss of biodiversity, including phenomena such as bee colony collapse disorder.One only hopes enough people are ready to hear and comprehend that in order to save the bees, along with perhaps all life on the planet including ourselves, it will be necessary to temper if not altogether abandon the love affair with our electronic gadgets, even as society is hurtling toward 'Smart Cities' and the 'Internet Of Things'. It's a stark reality, but one that must be confronted, and now. Just as ignorance can no longer be claimed over the dangers of Big Tobacco or toxic pesticides, so too must society as a whole come to grips with this. The Invisible Rainbow stands out as a giant contribution toward that end and deserves to be as widely read as possible.

A must read. Paper, pen and highlighter needed. Some things everyone knows but this book confirms. Not a book of helpful info but a book to act on. Highlight and reread.
