The bulk of the book comprises a directory of organizations, publications, and other resources readers can turn to for in-depth information on each topic. This book is a catalyst for action and responsible living-for you and the planet. "

"This is a big comprehensive book about the ways we humans have gone wrong in our treatment of the Earth and our fellow beings, and what can be done to bring about change.

The first couple of hundred pages are not easy going, dealing as they do with factory farming and systematic animal abuse, not to mention the damage caused to our own bodies and the environment by chemical poisons, junkfood, and meat eating. True, most of it is stuff that Vegan Voice readers already know - and perhaps would not fancy reading again. However, things are changing so rapidly that statistics become outdated in the blink of an eye, and to have all these references at your fingertips in one book is a boon.

Next comes the exhaustive directory, which is an alphabetized guide to what you can do to make a difference. Activism, animal protection, how to set up a raw vegan kitchen, healing retreats, organic gardening and farming, recycling, sprouting, vegan groups and Web sites - these are just some of the topics the author addresses.

McCabe has done an admirable job of research in gathering together many Web sites from around the world, not just from the U.S. Of course, it's not as if too many books with vegan content are coming out of Australia, more's the pity. The U.S. appears to be a fertile garden in this respect.

Ultimately what I liked about the book was its positivity, the author's belief that each one of us can make a difference in spite of what can often seem like overwhelming odds. Unlike myself, McCabe believes that humanity is basically good. (I have to admire that kind of spirit - but I was born like this, a tortured soul.)"

"Following up on the popularity of raw food authority David Wolfe's Sunfood Diet Success System, author John McCabe brings us Sunfood Living: Resource Guide for Global Health. This informative book educates readers about how to make environmentally sound choices for body and earth, with the entire second half an encyclopedic resource guide organized by topic from activist directories to yoga.

Sunfood Living presents a paradigm shift away from a processed, cooked, meat-based diet, advocating instead for raw foods veganism. McCabe argues that we derive the most molecularly useful nutrition by eating raw plant matter grown in natural sunlight. When we consume a raw diet, he says, we transfer solar energy into our system, recharging our electromagnetic field, which results in better cellular function. Heating food destroys enzymes, and cooked foods lack electrons needed for vibrant health and regeneration of body tissue. Especially harmful are meats that directly contribute to degenerative disease, not to mention the attendant costs of environmental devastation due to factory farming.
