Book Description:
The Body Electric tells the fascinating story of our bioelectric selves. Robert O. Becker, a pioneer in the filed of regeneration and its relationship to electrical currents in living things, challenges the established mechanistic understanding of the body. He found clues to the healing process in the long-discarded theory that electricity is vital to life. But as exciting as Becker's discoveries are, pointing to the day when human limbs, spinal cords, and organs may be regenerated after they have been damaged, equally fascinating is the story of Becker's struggle to do such original work. The Body Electric explores new pathways in our understanding of evolution, acupuncture, psychic phenomena, and healing.

Review: Ahead of his time...
I'm not really one for science books, but this book has got to be the exception. If you have any chronic or 'incurable' disease, try to hold on - because fortunately there are at least a few doctors and researchers out there who are bright enough to think outside the box and challenge existing theories regarding the workings of the human body - in particular, the electricity of the human body and how it coincides with the universe.
The author walks the reader through his discoveries that not only is it feasible for the human body to regenerate (just like the salamander's), but most likely, this is what our bodies were designed to do from the get-go, until we surrounded ourselves with electromagnetic fields of pollution so powerful that our perfectly designed DNA, immune systems, cardiovascular systems, endocrine systems, neuromuscular systems became 'confused' by all the external commotion.
The author of this book represents what research 'should be' about, but for the most part isn't, and the reader cannot help but become a part of this researcher's emotion.
If I ever have a chance to meet the author of this book, I will be honored. Until then, I will recommend this book to anyone who values the perfectly amazing life God gave them and the perfectly synchronized universe He created to sustain that life. I only pray that there are more reseachers out there bravely willing to poke holes in the current theories that the human body is merely a collection of chemical reactions, unopposed by a higher force.
The author touches on this, and I am in agreement - I have to wonder if perhaps all the bad we see around us today - broken marriages, suicides, bombings, disease, pain, suffering, greed - is this merely a by-product of all the manmade electromagnetic distress surrounding each and every one of us on a daily basis? After reading this book, you will think twice about what we've sacrificed for the sake of 'technology' - everlasting life on earth.

Review: Very interesting!
If you are pretty well versed in physiology and basic biology, you will probably love this book! As an engineer and experimental scientist Dr. Becker opened my eyes to a whole new area of study which, politics aside, has the potential to change almost every person's life.

Review:
It is the best non-fiction book I have ever read
The first half the book held my attention like when I read a Clive Cussler adventure.
Dr. Becker patiently explains both biology and electricity building up to providing the understanding of regeneration as his research progressed.
The next half of the book explains first how electromagentism affects humans, then the potential hazards of electromagnetism are addressed.
Overall this book is very well written and I recommend it to all my friends whether they are engineers like me or not.

Review: "K.I.S.S"
Let's keep this simple. Robert O. Becker discovered that Metabolism, our "Biological Clock AND Compass", is disoriented by the plethora of electromagnetic pollution spewed out by our government and corporate facilities, ( ie: everything from Radar Beams, Microwaves, radio waves and Cell Phone frequencies ), which discovery smacked Western Civilization/Technology, ( not just that of the U.S., but of other countries as well ), in the face.
What does this metabolic "Disorientation" cause, or rather, prevent? It inhibits our perfect DNA replication/mitosis. This means that the multiplication and division of the information necessary to create correct cell replication is prohibited in the Global Population subjected to such abnormal, multi-level electromagnetic frequencies... and the very entities making money off of our denied replication, ( read that as Health! ), are making money "hand over fist" from the misery they are causing in us.
Whether he realized it or not, Becker gives us "THE" cure for all genetic/cellular/chemical, ( ie: Endoderm, Mesoderm, Ectoderm/Neurological, Endocrinological, Immunological, Genetic, and Atomic ), dysfunction on page 249 of his book. It is our return to normal bio-rhythm/metabolism within the "infinitesimal field ( 0.025 volts per centimeter ) pulsing at 10 hertz", which also just so happens to be the Earth's natural frequency - and the tempo of Mozart's music. ( See also "The Mozart Effect" by Don Campbell. )
The fact that I've told you the "end" of Becker's book does not let you off the hook from reading it yourself. The experiments sited between it's covers that prove what I just revealed are worth their weight in gold. We can't go around JUST spouting the virtues of Regeneration, we must be able to SIMPLY explain them to an unbelieving audience, and Becker gives you the ammunition to do just that.
What was my interest in this research? I had autistic twin sons and a learning disabled daughter. When their "Disorientation" became apparent, I did what I knew helped me: I removed them from the, ( Electromagnetic and, THEREFORE, "Developmental" ), STRESS I knew could cause dysfunction in me.
It worked. They were recovered. The DNA "Bone's" REALLY connected to The Genetic "Bone". The Genetic "Bone's" really connected to The Cellular "Bone", or should I say "Mitosis" of everything in the entire Human Body. And the STRESS BONE, ( regulated by our Metabolism ), "Coordinates" or "Discoordinates" the whole Body. In short: we reconnected all of the, ( dry ), "bones" and became healthy again - outside of Western Civilization/Socialization/Technology.
I did the impossible. "I" perfectly developed my children, ( using the Earth's Rhythm as "THE TRUE INTERNAL DEVELOPER" ), and, in the process, alienated the Status Quo, "The EXTERNAL Developer", as much as Becker did. You see, Perfect Genetic replication will put a lot of governmental and corporate departments out of business...
Moral of story? Guard your own ORIGINAL, natural, internal, INHERENT Metabolism with your Life, because it *IS* your LIFE, your PERFECT "Electromagnetic" LIFE!!! It also is the Life of this entire Planet and the sooner we realize that, the better for us all...
"The Body Electric" does a good job of giving us back our HEALTHY CODE of Life. Please read it - and live to your highest potential, which, otherwise, cannot be reached without a return to normal Bio-"Time/Space" Orientation. Read for your Life and that of your children and their children too. They will thank you for the gift you "Biologically" pass on to them.

Review: A must read for energy workers
This provides the missing link with respect to the transfer of energy as it activates the healing process at a cellular level.
The Body Electric tells the fascinating story of our bioelectric selves. Robert O. Becker, a pioneer in the filed of regeneration and its relationship to electrical currents in living things, challenges the established mechanistic understanding of the body. He found clues to the healing process in the long-discarded theory that electricity is vital to life.
