Now Im going to have to buy it just to have a copy of all the recipes

I love Alicia Silverstone and her fun enthusiasm and sweetness just jumps off the page at you, also has great information altho I cried in one of the early chapters talking about how they treat dairy cows. (

Lots of useful information in first part of book; lots of great recipes in second part. I'm enjoying working my way through the food and highly recommend this to anyone thinking of incorporating more plant-based food into their diet. (

Any book that teaches me more about veganism is alright by me.
Silverstone uses a normal, everyday voice that anyone can relate to, getting her point across and making the reader aware without alienating them. That's pretty key in a book telling you how your current diet is killing you! (

Epigraph

Dedication

For Sampson, for all animals who suffer needlessly, and for those who do their best to tread lightly on the earth

First words

These days, it seems like there are a million and one problems in the world; global warming, droughts, rising food costs, toxic waterways, cancer, heart disease, diabetes, starvation... it's enough to make anyone want to crawl into a hole with a big bowl of ice cream!

Quotations

World peace begins inside you--literally. In your body and mind. Global peace can only be achieved when the individuals living in the world recognize peace within themselves.
