I thought this book was good and provided a lot of information, but the authors were in my opinion, a bit too judgemental. Ive been a vegetarian for years and have been a vegan only a few months. It has been a challenge for me with determining whether a product has animal by-products. The authors make you feel like the worst person in the world if you call yourself a vegan and accidently eat a by product. They really hard core put you down if you are not a "perfect vegan" which earlier in the book they praised people for trying. Towards the end of this book it turned into a "BASH ALL THE VEGANS WHO ARE TRYING BUT MIGHT NOT BE 100% YET" which turned me more off to veganism than on. So, if you do not have tough skin, do not read this book.

This is a very interesting book. It features in one part a detailed description of 2006 Nobel Peace Prize winner Muhammad Yunus and his Grameen Bank, who used microloans to help Bangladeshis, especially women, get out of poverty and earn for themselves. By issuing very small loans, the people of Bangladesh are able to build their businesses or working conditions and change their lives. I recommend this book.

This book not only conveys delicious, simple, vegan friendly, vegetarian recipes but it gives you a small insight into the life of Monastery cooking and living. It puts focus on the flavors of the food, being mindful of where your food was grown, how it is prepared, served, eaten, saved; the whole process.
The book is wonderfully written and you don't feel as if you're reading a cook book or recipe book - it all flows together so seamlessly. The author takes you from the garden where the caretaker is tending it daily to the cook who prepares the food with inspiring mindfulness to the monks who enjoy the final products. This book helps bring Buddhism to your cutting board in so many ways. This is one of my absolute favorite books about ... Read More: >>More Details |

Any body who has read more than two or three books on veganism and vegetarianism runs across references to Pythagoras, Henry Salt, Francis Moore Lappe, Leo Tolstoy, etc. etc. as people who wrote important works on vegetarianism. But their books are hard to find. This book steps in and presents the central writings of these and many other people who have defended the notion that diet is a moral moatter. Very helpful, very well organized.

The Sexual Politics of Meat: A Feminist-Vegetarian Critical Theoryby: Carol J. Adams 1991-03 Search: vegetarian philosophy |

Feminism AND veganism? This would seem like the book of my dreams. But it wasn't.
I was looking for some really strong arguments backed with opinions and modern issues, but there wasn't anything like that in this book. In fact I'm sure that I could come up with better points in comparing animal exploitation to women's exploitation. Though I do feel happy that this book was written and I respect Carol J. Adams for writing it. >>More Details |
