A comprehensive and up-to-date collection of papers on the role of electrodynamical activities in biocommunication is presented in this volume. It provides research findings, practical applications and theoretical investigations linking phenomena as diverse as the sensitivity of organisms to ultraweak ELF electromagnetic fields, noninvasive imaging by magnetic field tomography, coherent liquid crystalline mesophases in living organisms and coherent light emission from biological systems. The volume begins with chapters on the historical perspectives and the biophysical background necessary for understanding bioelectrical phenomena. This is followed by chapters dealing with the biological effects of external electromagnetic fields; the detection of endogenous electrodynamical and related activities and their practical applications; and finally, theoretical perspectives and overviews. It is recommended for undergraduates, graduates and research scientists in all disciplines who wish to be informed of the emerging discipline of bioelectrodynamics.List of Contributors: M Bischof, J J Chang, A S Davydov, D Edmonds, A French, C Gross, Q Gu, J Haffegee, M W Ho, A A Ioannides, R P Liburdy, W P Mei, R Pethig, F A Popp, P T Saunders; C W Smith, T Y Tsong, U Warnke, T M Wu, C L Zhang.
