Reviews

"A great resource for folks toying with the idea of transitioning to vegetarianism."
--Carolyn Scott-Hamilton, in VegNews

"[A]n invaluable reference for anyone who still doesn't believe that the Standard American Diet (SAD) is in fact the cause for a majority of our personal, global and moral devastation. Highly recommended."
