Product Description

Product Description

Meat-eaters aren't often eager to learn about vegetarianism. When confronted with the topic, their common reaction is to shake their heads and roll their eyes. Maybe one reason for this is that vegetarians tend to take themselves and their favorite subject oh so seriously.

As someone who's never been accused of taking anything seriously, Mark Reinhardt wanted to do something about this. He decided to laugh in the face of death and destruction, and so produced The Perfectly Contented Meat-Eater's Guide to Vegetarianism -- an irreverent yet comprehensive book that teaches meat-eaters (and vegetarians too!) both the fundamentals and all the quirky idiosyncrasies of vegetarian life, and does it in a fun, humorous way.

The book will delight vegetarians who thought they'd heard it all before, and is the perfect gift for doubting parents and all those friends and relatives every vegetarian has been trying to convert for years. The book comes with an extensive resource section for those who want to follow this book with materials that actually say something a little more serious.

"Hey", writes Reinhardt, "If meat-eaters are going to shake their heads and roll their eyes anyway, it may as well be because of my bad jokes!"

This review is from: Perfectly Contended Meat-Eater Guide to Vegetarianism (Paperback)
I found this book to be very helpful and fun to read but,I haven't picked it up again since my first read through. I think this would be a great gift to a new vegatarian or a lender to a person interested in learning more about the specifics. Informative and fun....just not a whole lot of new info for this long-time reader and veggie eater!

5.0 out of 5 stars Entetaining as Well as Educational, April 12 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Perfectly Contended Meat-Eater Guide to Vegetarianism (Paperback)
This book is an outstanding review of the health, ecological, and moral reasons for refraining from eating animal products. Having said that, it is neither "preachy" nor sanctimonious but rather downright entertaining. I loved it. It made a vegetarian out ofme.

5.0 out of 5 stars EXCELLENT BOOK!, Jan 26 2000

Donna Ladd (New York City) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Perfectly Contended Meat-Eater Guide to Vegetarianism (Paperback)
I bought this book for my boyfriend right after we discussed going vegetarian. I thought it was a cookbook to help ease us into a meatless diet, which we were considering primarily because he wanted to lose weight. Instead, it changed my boyfriend's life -- addicted, he kept coming into the room to read me sections. It gave us permission to be vegetarians (year and a half now) for ALL the right reasons -- love of animals, the environmental and hunger problems perpetrated by the meat industry, all-around health, etc. -- although he did lose 30 pounds without getting hungry! This is a perfect antidote for all the stupid Adkins/Zone/high-protein diets that are so unhealthy -- and are only excuses for people to keep eating too much meat (which is *any*, now that we've read this book). And it's so funny and light-hearted that you'll be an avowed vegetarian before you know what hit you. Give a copy to everyone you know! We're sold.
