Book Description

“Vegan Diet & Animal-Free Lifestyle” is a comprehensive overview of veganism that was written by Ms. Hanna Getty who has been leading a rather strict vegan lifestyle since early childhood in the late 1960s. Throughout this book, Ms. Getty covers a plethora of topics that will inform readers about the history of vegetarians and how they branched out into the vegan standards of living, teach wannabe vegans how to be vegan, remind existing vegans why be vegan, explain the differences between the various vegetarian vegan ways of life, emphasize the health benefits to eating animal free food products, show the moral aspects of doing no harm to animals while also protecting the global environment, and much more.

Considering this to be yet one more step in her personal journey into the depth of veganism, Hanna Getty has made this her work of passion in which she deftly balances significant scientific research against ethical viewpoints, religious dogmas and her own individual experience. Though these subjects can be rather sobering, Ms. Getty has found a way of delivering her message with lighthearted humor and a cheery attitude.

“Vegan Diet & Animal-Free Lifestyle” is not a cookbook. As a special bonus, however, Ms. Getty has incorporated a vegan recipe which she extracted from her own immense collection of vegan recipes and inserted one at the end of each chapter of this very important literary work. Furthermore, Ms. Getty has created the VeganBlogger.com site as an added valuable resource for her audience to enjoy.

With so many vegan and vegetarian books on the market today, what makes “Vegan Diet & Animal-Free Lifestyle” by Hanna Getty so special? Well, it is a straightforward account presented by one who has been walking the walk and talking the talk of an ardent vegan for more than four decades and its significant implications are handed over with direct truthfulness and candid honesty.

Thus, “Vegan Diet & Animal-Free Lifestyle” by Hanna Getty is guaranteed to be thoroughly engaging and utterly entertaining while providing an exhaustively synaptic outlook on veganism and the vegan lifestyle which mandates the use of plant-based rather than animal-based products in every aspect of one’s life.

5.0 out of 5 stars Vegan Life Style May 7, 2012
By Sophie
Format:Kindle Edition
The book is an excellent introduction to the vegan lifestyle. Ms. Getty ably argues for both the ethical and the nutritional aspects of veganism, but her emphasis is on ethics. She is uncompromising in her belief that all sentient beings have certain inalienable rights, and should therefore be neither slaughtered nor exploited at our convenience. From such a principled perspective, the consumption of milk and honey becomes as egregious as the consumption of meat.

But this is not a polemic. Rather, Ms. Getty has done her homework. She provides an exhaustive list of medicines, nutritional additives, clothing, and other items in daily use that contain animal products, sometimes in minute traces. If those are to be avoided, the number of replacement items is constantly growing. A vegan diet and animal free lifestyle do require some research, but Ms. Getty assures us they are getting easier to follow. She provides suggestions and links for further exploration, and a few fun recipes to get us started.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great veganism information May 1, 2012
By Regina
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
I am not a vegan and have no plan to become one, but I am interested in the reasons other people adopt this way of life. This book is the best I have read in explaining the various motivations of people who live this way. I especially appreciated the discussion of tensions between vegans and those who eat differently. Having been at the dinner table more than once when such conflict arose, I enjoyed the light touch, humor, and insight that the author brought to those situations.

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb Information June 29, 2012
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
This book provides a comprehensive holistic view of the vegan lifestyle. Using a no-nonsense, easy to read approach, the author clarifies the concept of veganism, from the history on up to today. My husband and I have been vegan for 6 months now and we are still learning new things everyday. My goal is to immerse myself into mindfulness about what I eat, wear, and consume in order to ensure that at all times, I am cognizant of my behavior and how it impacts my environment. This book assists in approaching that lifestyle. I would highly recommend this book for anyone who seeks to become more educated in the vegan movement!
