Food for Thought has stood in the heart of London’s Convent Garden for nearly 30 years, maintaining a reputation for innovative and delicious vegetarian food within a quirky and friendly, family-run atmosphere. The basic formula has not changed in those three decades, but the role of vegetarianism has. More and more people are turning to vegetarian food for health reasons. Gone are the days of traditional pulses and meat substitutes: vegetarian eating now offers a deliciously healthy way to enjoy food. First published in 1994, New Food For Thought offered over 150 of the most popular recipes served in the restaurant. This edition is fully revised and updated to reflect the slight changes in the restaurant’s menus. Every single chapter includes brand new dishes; the existing recipes have been simplified to require fewer ingredients, and there is a whole new chapter of Food For Thought’s popular specials, offering mouthwatering recipes for occasion dining. From quick stir fries to gourmet meals, sumptuous cakes and desserts to vegan and wheat-free dishes, this book draws on vegetarian cooking from all over the globe using fresh ingredients all readily available from your local supermarket. It proves, yet again, that vegetarian cooking is an appetizing, healthier option for converts and carnivores alike. Includes dual measures.

The meditations in Food for Thought focus on our need for support, compassion, understanding, and acceptance of our compulsive eating. Each daily reading provides encouragement for turning to our Higher Power for comfort and addresses the steps and concerns that help us in our recovery. These meditations help recovering women and men begin to benefit from a physically, emotionally, and spiritually balanced life.

The suppression of family history is the initial thread that ties together The Love Bunglers, featuring Hernandez's longtime Love and Rockets heroine Maggie. Because these secrets can't be dealt with openly, their lingering effect is even more powerful. But Maggie's ability to navigate and find meaning in her life - despite losing her culture, her brother, her profession, and her friends - is what's made her a compelling character. After a lifetime of losses, Maggie finds, in the second half, her longtime off and on lover, Ray Dominguez. Much like John Updike in his four Rabbitnovels, Jaime Hernandez has been following his longtime character Maggie around for several decades, all of which has seemed to be building towards this book in particular.

Food for Thought offers fresh psychoanalytic insights into treating clients with eating disorders. In lively and jargon-free language, Nina Savelle-Rocklin breaks down the psychoanalytic approach to give practitioners and general readers alike a deeper understanding of the theory and effective treatment of eating disorders. Those living with eating disorders often use food to express their inner feelings, and Savelle-Rocklin illustrates the importance of the therapeutic relationship in uncovering the nature of these internal emotions, and formulating them into words. Through an intensive and mutual process, clients can begin to understand the language of the eating disorder, identify and work through its underlying conflicts, ultimately eliminating symptoms, relieving distress, and transforming the way they relate to themselves and others. Thoughtful and highly engaging, Food for Thought provides invaluable methods for practitioners treating patients with eating disorders to achieve lasting change and true healing.

For anyone who has ever wondered about the ethics of killing animals for food, this is the definitive collection of essays on the ethical debate. Written by internationally recognized scholars on both sides of the debate, the provocative articles here compiled will give vegetarians and meat-eaters a thorough grounding in all aspects of this controversial issue. After an introduction to the nature of the debate by editor Steve F. Sapontzis, Daniel Dombrowski reviews the history of vegetarianism. There follows a discussion of health issues and what anthropology has to tell us about human diet. Also included are the classic cases for vegetarianism from philosophers Peter Singer and Tom Regan, and new essays rebutting those classic positions from humanists Roger Scruton and Carl Cohen, among others. Various scholars then examine religious teachings about eating animals, which are drawn from Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, as well as Native American and Eastern traditions. Finally, Carol J. Adams, Deanne Curtin, and Val Plumwood, among other outstanding advocates, debate the ethics of eating meat in connection with feminism, environmentalism, and multiculturalism. Containing virtually a "Who’s Who" of philosophers, social critics, environmentalists, feminists, and religious scholars who have participated in the vegetarianism debate over the past quarter century, this outstanding anthology of expert articles, most of them new, provides the latest thinking on a subject of increasing public interest.
