Summary: A Great Resource Book
Review: I find this book to be invaluable for checking nutrition information, health concerns, and other vegan-related issues. It is always a good idea to have several sources for these particular questions, and I think this handbook is an honest resource for this information. The authors do a thorough job of researching, and they stay away from fantastic claims.I also appreciate the stories and the historical and cultural articles. It is interesting to read about vegetarianism from these perspectives, and it gives a person a good basic background on the topic. I am not quite as enthusiastic about the recipes, but that could be because I do a lot of my own creations when cooking. I am also not a fan of many of the "traditional" vegetarian foods, like bean-centered dishes, so I tend to steer clear of them. I will say that this book has a wide variety of dishes, and someone who is not as creative on his/her own with cooking should enjoy them.

Summary: This book is a wonderful resource.
Review: I really like this cookbook. It is very useful, especially for young vegans like me who need to cook for themselves. The recipes are easy follow, but sometimes complicated to prepare, and not always quick. I really like the poetry and biographies in it, but some of the information isn't completely true, for example, they talk about Ben Franklin being a vegetarian, but they don't add that he decided that vegetarianism wasn't for him after smelling fish.

Summary: collection of magazine articles
Review: This book is simply a collection of articles from the "Vegetarian Journal". I'm not saying that's a terrible thing, but just know that before you buy it. It was interesting to look through the first time, but I didn't really care for any of the recipes and I haven't opened it back up since the first time I read it.
