The Radiofrequency Radiation Dosimetry Handbook: reminiscences.

Abstract:

:This paper traces the history of the development of the Radiofrequency Radiation Dosimetry Handbook and its subsequent impact on radio frequency radiation exposure standards. The author's recollections are used to illustrate the behind the scenes efforts of the individuals involved in this project. The development of models at the University of Utah and confirmation of these results by various experimenters led to the publication of four editions of the Radiofrequency Radiation Dosimetry Handbook, i.e., "The RFR Experimenters Bible."
