One of the main concerns related to EMF producing technologies and health has been the fact that their fast deployment has never been preceded by research and health risk assessment. The rapid changes in technology and usage have made it very difficult to plan research programmes. The scientific assessment has always come late and guidelines have in principle been set as independent of the various technology. We need to look at the recent past, in terms of risk assessment, perception and management.
