Lindsay S. Nixon

"In her latest Happy Herbivore book, Lindsay S. Nixon provides what her readers have been clamoring for-a practical, in-depth guide to living the plant-based lifestyle. A plant-based diet is not about saying "no" to a variety of foods. It's about saying "yes" to you and your health. It's about saying "yes" to whole, good-for-you foods that make you feel (and look!) great. Embracing any new lifestyle means changes, questions, and skeptics at your door. You don't have to face that alone. Nixon has been successfully living the Happy Herbivore lifestyle for years and during that time, she's helped thousands of clients make the transition. In Happy Herbivore Life, she expertly walks you through how to thrive as a happy herbivore, from making the transition to living plant-proud every day to overcoming objections from your family and friends. Nixon provides insight on key ingredients to include in your diet and exposes the myths concerning soy, carbs, fat, and protein. She offers tips on what to say to critical carnivores, how to live plant-based with a busy lifestyle, and ways to make easy substitutions in recipes that won't change the texture and taste of your favorite dishes. Beautiful pictures and a sampling of new plant-based recipes accompany her savvy advice, plus testimonials from fans who have embraced the happy herbivore way and are loving the results. Happy Herbivore Life is the essential and ultimate guide you've been waiting for to help you transform your life through plant-based eating"--

Eddie McNamara

"Takeout food every night is great...for leaving you broke, bloated and praying for a national healthcare plan to deal with your fat ass self. Eddie McNamara wants to show you how to stop being a takeout junkie or a Gordon Ramsay wannabe who spends years learning complex knife skills you don't need. He also wants to show you how to pump up the flavor without resorting to using meat because – really - who needs to eat more meat? As Eddie puts it, 'Any schmuck can put bacon on something to make it delicious.' He wanted to show people how easy it was to cook delicious meatless meals for themselves rather than gorging more fat and salt on a daily basis than you'd see in a bucket of KFC. He also wanted to show people that you don't have to be Warren Buffett to eat well. As he puts it 'Brokesters have cooked filling plant-based food since long before Mark Bittman moved to Berkeley in search of a perfectly ripe avocado.'" --Amazon.com.

Rob Goodbody

"When the potato crop failed catastrophically in the autumn of 1846, Quakers came together to set up a sophisticated relief organisation. Through this system donations were solicited in Ireland, Britain and America, and large amounts of food, Clothing and money were distributed where they were most needed. Later this relief organisation became involved in longer term projects such as assistance to agriculture, fisheries and industry and the provision of training ... the experience gained became the foundation for Quaker relief operations which continue today." --Back cover.
