This is not a cookbook. It is, instead, a very gentle guide for those considering the switch to a vegetarian lifestyle that answers the obvious questions all new vegetarians have, like "How will I get enough protein?", while also delving into more subtle questions a beginner might not think to ask at the start, such as "How do I handle family, co-workers, etc. who make fun of vegetarians, or belittle me for making this choice?" There is no ranting here, only understanding, solid information, and good advice. How to Go Vegetarian is well written, thoughtful and remarkably compassionate toward the "newbie." If you are already a committed vegetarian, grab this for someone you know who might be tottering on the edge of decision.
