From Booklist
Vegans avoid not simply meat, but all animal products including dairy. This diet can be problematic unless it's carefully controlled to be sure that all necessary protein components are present. Barnard and Kramer recount their own roads to veganism, one as a matter of personal choice, the other as a way out of chronic disease. The authors suggest substitutes for animal products and recommend ways to ensure that one consumes sufficient proteins and vitamins while following a vegan regime. Recipes present few surprises, relying on tofu and other soy products as textural components and substitutes for meats and dairy products. Keeping in mind that many cosmetics are based on animal products or tested on animals, the authors offer some helpful recipes for these beauty enhancers as well. Mark Knoblauch

Please note: the second edition of How It All Vegan! (currently available) has been revised to include no bee products. It is therefore now 100% Vegan and now includes an extensive index.
How It All Vegan FROM THE PUBLISHER
Sarah and Tanya are friends and self-described "lazy vegetarians" whose love of animals made them want to eliminate animal products completely from their diet. Their decision to "go vegan" was a challenge not only to their palate but to their way of thinking about food and nutrition. But with some imagination and a little know-how, the transition to a vegan lifestyle can be painless. And as Sarah and Tanya demonstrate in How It All Vegan, vegan food is fabulous food, full of flavour and all the nutrients you need.
