Promising Review: "I highly recommend this book. It's a very well written, entertaining read. The book provides a great amount of information pertaining to human feelings about animals as well as about animal feelings and behavior. It also demonstrates that virtually everyone is inconsistent in the way they think about and treat animals, and suggests that such inconsistency may be inherent in the human species." — Sylvester

17. The Vegan Stoner Cookbook, which features recipes so easy that you can make them while enjoying another plant based-product, if ya know what I mean.
Promising Review: "This book, let's be honest, was not written for me, a 40-year-old who knows his way around the kitchen. But I really wish it had been around when I first became vegan, in my mid-20s, and didn't know where or how to begin. The recipes produce delicious, easily prepared vegan food that's inexpensive to make. The artwork is outstanding, too — appealing without being too precious. These recipes will appeal to your inner stoner, even if, like myself, you have no interest whatsoever in getting stoned. Even as a somewhat experienced cook, I sometimes just want to open a few cans, throw stuff in a pan and eat a delicious meal in 15 minutes. This adorable cookbook is a winner." — Dustin G. Rhodes

Promising review: "This cookbook is fantastic. I'm not vegan, but I try to cook as many vegan dishes as possible. At times, it's difficult to find really flavorful dishes without cheese, eggs, etc. The recipes I've tried from this book are not only super tasty, but they all feature ingredients that I can find at any grocery store, so I don't have to trek over to a specialty store." — Elizabeth Mabrey
