A brief survey of current ideas about the physical mechanisms of low‐level millimeter/microwave‐biological effects is given, and the experimental evidence supporting these ideas is reviewed. The conjectural models do not yet represent a complete physical theory, but they do counter the idea that low‐level effects are physically impossible and suggest experiments.
