Rating: - Quick, simple, and straight-to-the-point
I went browsing for a book on the vegetarian lifestyle when I started considering the option. I picked it out because it was the smallest book. Wise choice. It's small, but it's packed with useful information and it's straight to the point. It explained the types of vegetarians and how to obtain all the nutrition that you need in each lifestyle. It's a small book, but packed with information and can be used as a quick and easy reference after reading. I highly recommend this little book!
