Introduction

After more than 50 years of investigation on the Effects on Public Health of Anthropogenic Pollution by Electric and Magnetic fields, the number of publications has risen to above 32 thousand, according to the on-line database: https://www.emf-portal.org/en. This considerable body of research has provided substantial evidence of the detrimental effect that this form of pollution has on public health, from which the increased risk of leukemia for children living near high-voltage power lines, and brain tumors for frequent users of mobile communications, are highlighted from many more. In this context, the objective of this special issue is to compile in a single “folder” of references, the essential milestones of these years of research with two goals: 1) to consolidate the research field and bring it into main research topics and academic courses; 2) facilitate the search for main results in this area to both scientists (specialized or not) and, very importantly, to interested citizens and authorities. Considered in this way, the impact of this Special Issue on the improvement of Public Health may be immense.

The special issue is a follow on from the successful Expert Forum held in Tel Aviv University in 2020 (Lectures can be viewed here)
