There is "Living Among the Meat Eaters: The Vegetarian's Survival Handbook," which helps a vegetarian/vegan deal in a wold of family, friends and strangers giving rude, and flawed attacks on your lifestyle. (This helps at what seems to be a very big topic on this forum.) It also has recipes. It is a very calm and compassionate book with chapters such as:
Are You at Peace
Judgment, Guilt and Anger,
Sabotage and other Meat Eating Defenses
Love at work- Living with the Meat Eaters
Grace at Work- Eating with the Meat Eaters
Being the Mover, Not the Moved
Another crazy, amazing book is "The Pornography of Meat." I was stunned when I read that book. It has wonderful pictures and shows/explains the similarities and history of how our culture treats women/meat, including how we (literally or figuratively) cut each up so we see only pieces and parts we can consume, as opposed to whole beings.
Finally, I would suggest "Vegan Freak: Being Vegan in a Non-Vegan world." It is a very interesting read, but do not feel discouraged if you do not/ cannot live up to their ideals. As you know, being Vegan is a process, but being 100% Vegan is impossible. It even has a chapter on how to deal with vegetarians, and a list of vegan and non-vegan things, e.g. mono-diglicerides= not vegan.

exciting questions. i think of of veganism as an ingesting massive distinction basically (i'm an ovo/lacto vegetarian), in spite of your reasons. it incredibly is, you will possibly be able to basically have an interest interior the nutritional factors of veganism, and not the animal cruelty factors, or vice versa. the two/the two/mix of the two are all equivalent in my techniques. i'm vegetarian greater for nutritional reasons than ethical - I do only unlike meat. That stated, the e book i might elect to propose is the hot Farm Vegetarian Cookbook. it is from the Tennessee commune, The Farm, and it is astonishing with fairly some selfmade, complication-unfastened recipes. superb for a sparkling vegan. I have been given my first reproduction interior the '70s, until now there became pretend rooster, frozen veggie burgers, and so on. in each food market. good success & happy cooking!

I started with The Vegan Source book http://www.amazon.com/Vegan-Sourcebook-Joanne-Stepaniak/dp/0737305061 .
This page

has some good books on veganism under the General Info section.
Good Luck. Go vegan and never stop becoming vegan :)
