Excellent book covering every little nook and cranny of vegan nutrition. The best feature of this book is that the authors are unbiased with the information they share, and they truly have their readers' health as their primary interest. There are chapters for every stage of life - pregnancy, breastfeeding, infancy, childhood, adolescence, old age, even a chapter for athletes.

Despite the title, this really is a book mostly all about nutrition. For other issues surrounding living as a vegan, check out [b:Being Vegan|384181|Being Vegan|Joanne Stepaniak|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1174346410s/384181.jpg|373937]
One of my most refered to books. This book has everything that you could possibly want to know about diet, nutritonal information, the break down of vitamins, minerals, and proteins. All the bases are covered. Food requirements for athletes, children, men, women, teenagers, underweight, overweight, senior citizens, this book has it all, and it is a book that I recommend to anyone who is thinking about Becoming Vegan.
A good resource to keep on hand when I need information for myself or when others need explanations about the vegan diet.
a great instructional book on the advantages and disadvantages of a vegan diet. lots of good info on vitamins, minerals, etc. a sort of "user's manual" to eating vegan. i'll definitely have this on hand as a reference book.
