Jennifer Wells has set out the 'rules' for vegetarian eating.This book includes a lot of facts and also provides some insight into the American attitude to vegetarians. Jennifer concentrates on people who are vegetarian for health reasons. I've been a vegetarian for over half my life (I'm 62) and there are several vegetarians in my family, but although I know plenty of vegetarians I don't know any who became vegetarian mainly for health reasons.One of the reasons some people become vegetarian here is to save money, so I was surprised that one of the myths Jennifer finds it necessary to debunk is that it is an expensive diet.Jennifer is much more cautious in her recommendations than I would be. I gave it five stars partly because while there are things I disagree with they are mostly matters of opinion, and I found the book to be thought provoking. I was very lucky to have received a free copy of this book.
