Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
In this introduction to the vegetarian lifestyle, the editors of Vegetarian Times (whose circulation has doubled in the last three years) describe the various types of vegetarianism. Stressing the health value of the vegetarian lifestyle, especially in the treatment of various diseases, they point out the possible dangers of dairy foods, discuss whether to use vitamin supplements, and encourage the use of low-fat ingredients. Tips on the basic vegetarian pantry, along with two-weeks' worth of easy recipes and menus, are given for the beginner. Extra good-reading resource material is found at the end of each chapter, and there is a small section on natural healing; food-borne illnesses; vegetarian babies, children, and teens; and, yes, even vegetarian pets. Recommended for most collections; libraries may also want the Vegetarian Times Cookbook (LJ 11/15/95) for more extended recipes. (Index not seen.) [See also Virginia Messina and others' The Vegetarian Way, LJ 2/1/96.?Ed.]?Loraine F. Sweetland, Information Problem Solvers, Laurel, Md.

From Booklist
What these compilers--magazine writers--excel at is explaining, once and for all, the facts about shunning meat. Included in their discussions are different types of vegans, rebuttals of the "improper nutrition" myth, health issues from cancer to osteoporosis, alternative medicine, and environmentally friendly lifestyles. Plain and simple language infused with appropriate humor is augmented by 14 menus with 35 recipes and shopping lists, by end-of-chapter reading lists, and by sidebars filled with information and suggestions about tofu, holiday dinners, etc. Barbara Jacobs
