I've been vegan for over eight years and vegetarian for twenty. Maybe that's part of the reason I'm just not at all impressed by this book. I had high expectations but was disappointed in the uninspiring recipes. The photography is beautiful but this book is no where near the best of vegan cooking.

Here are some of the cookbooks I use:

'Vegan yum yum' Lauren Ulm
'The Mediterranean Vegan Kitchen' Donna Klein
'The Vegan Table' Colleen Patrick-Goudreau
'Go Dairy Free' Alisa Marie Fleming
'The Conscious Cook' Tal Ronnen (a bit more upscale vegan cuisine)
'Raw Food for Real People' Rod Rotondi (owner of Leaf Organics)

There are so many more excellent books out there. I suggest trying online recipes and if you like the style of the chef and the results of the recipes you've tried, consider their cookbook (assuming they offer one).

A few websites I recommend are:
