What people are saying about The World
Peace Diet:
“One of the most important books of the
21st century.” -- Norm Phelps, author, The
Dominion of Love and The Longest Struggle, and others .
“Absolutely the BEST book EVER on the
spiritual connection to what’s on our plates. This is my favorite book
in YEARS. A must.” -- Meria Heller,
noted radio talk show host
“A
profoundly insightful and important book, The World Peace Diet
is sure to be a catalyst and important tool in the evolution of human
consciousness.”-- Satya
Magazine
“Use The World Peace Diet
as a guide to empower yourself and others in making dietary choices
that are powerful beyond what you can possibly imagine.”
Julia Butterfly Hill, famed environmental activist, author,
and founder, Circle of Life Foundation
“Will
Tuttle brings a priceless perspective—not only to the planetary crisis
confronting us all, but also to powerful ways we each can affect it.
This book is radiant with his learning and his compassion.” Dr. Joanna Macy, noted author,
lecturer, educator, and peace activist
“Will
Tuttle, the author of this eloquently written book, challenges our
thinking about our relationship to non-human animals with respect,
sensitivity, and grace. His understanding of the human psyche is deep.
His use of language is divine, and his compassion reaches out and jumps
off each and every page. I highly recommend this book, and I dare you
to not be moved by its gentle power.” Colleen
Patrick-Goudreau, author and host of Compassionate Cooks
“I believe The World Peace Diet is
the most important book of the 21st century. If you read but one book
in your life, make it The World Peace Diet.” James
Macy, M.D.
“Will
Tuttle speaks with a prophetic voice for those in our world who
have no voice. I find this book to be the clearest and most complete
case for ethical vegetarianism that I have ever seen. I admire him for
the courage and the skill to state his case in a very clear and
compelling way. A landmark publication.” Rev.
Robert J. Brumet, Faculty, Unity School of Christianity
“The
World Peace Diet presents what is probably the most
comprehensive case yet for eating a diet, and creating a society, free
from cruelty and violence. Its central focus is the idea that cruelty
to animals (particularly farmed animals) sets a tone in our society
that plays out in interpersonal violence, war, and environmental
destruction. It is a provocative thesis, one that merits the attention
of all who claim to value life.” -- Dr. Daniel Redwood in Pathways
Magazine
“Stripping away delusions and rationalizations, The
World Peace Diet powerfully presents the connections between
our current food choices and so many of the problems we face with our
health, our environment, our politics, our society--and our spirits.
Dr. Tuttle provides the understanding of why and how a change to a
truly health supporting--and life affirming--way of eating can enable
us to thrive as individuals--and to survive as a society. “Profound,
passionate--and ultimately hopeful and inspiring--Will Tuttle's The
World Peace Diet should be required reading for students
everywhere--and for all people with inquiring minds and open hearts. I
recommend it most highly.” Michael
Klaper, M.D., noted author, lecturer, and health researcher
“Thought-provoking
and recommended for most collections.”-- Library Journal
“The
World Peace Diet is one of the most provocative
books I've ever read. I felt challenged and stimulated by its profound
insights, and called to question ever more deeply what Will Tuttle
calls 'the taboo against knowing who you eat.' This is a deep book,
aglow with insights that penetrate and expose the complacency of a
culture that has strayed painfully far from compassion." John Robbins, celebrated
author, Diet For A New America and many other best-selling
books
“I
am grateful for this powerful and cogent book. It has stretched my
thinking (and heart) about animals, compassion, and our society.” John
Mackey, Founder and C.E.O., Whole Foods, Inc.
“Will
Tuttle's The World Peace Diet is a challenging
wake-up call. His tone is urgent and uncompromising, yet filled with
compassionate understanding.” --The Quest
Magazine
“Well-informed,
impassioned and compassionate.”--The
Peaceable Table Journal
“The
World Peace Diet is a fabulous
read everyone will enjoy! Will Tuttle digs deep into the underlying
basis of our eating habits--and their consequences. You will come away
with a much deeper understanding of why we must change our diets if we
want to live in harmony with ourselves and this planet.” Mike Anderson, author, Rave
Diet and Lifestyle
“Complete,
compassionate, and profound. You'll never again take lightly the
question 'What's for dinner?'” Victoria Moran, author, Creating
a Charmed Life
“The language is well
chosen and a pleasure to read. I found myself marking passages to copy
later as quotations to rival those of the best vegetarian writers. This
book will educate you, challenge you, and maybe motivate you to take
action for yourself, your family, and all our fellow creatures.” Janice Stanger,
author, The Perfect Formula Diet
“The
World Peace Diet is one of those ‘necessary’ books. It is
necessary that all people read it. It is a necessary catalyst for the
transformation of human consciousness as it evolves from the domination
and exploitation mindset to the paradigm of communion, cooperation, and
reverence for all life.” Judy Carman, author, Peace To All Beings
“The World
Peace Diet has raised the bar in the understanding of the diet
in the order of all life on planet Earth. Reading this book will arm
you with the information to become part of the solution and not part of
the problem. Will Tuttle has struck a strong blow for the future of our
children and grandchildren and you can too by reading this book.” Howard
F. Lyman, renowned author, No More Bull! and Mad
Cowboy
“This
book is a must-read for anyone who wants to grow spiritually, who wants
to live a conscious and compassionate life, and who wants to contribute
to world peace. I have read many books on the topic of vegetarianism,
animal rights and animal welfare, spiritual growth, and peace and
nonviolence. This book stands alone in its ability to make the
connection between all of these subjects. “Will Tuttle, Ph.D. is a
rare combination of extraordinary compassion, scholarly research and
education, spiritual commitment and wisdom, intuitive insights, and the
courage to challenge a worldview which goes back 10,000 years. This is
a very important book for everyone who wants their lives to contribute
to more peace in the world, rather than more suffering and violence.” Delisa Renideo,
founder, Center For Peaceful Living, Wasilla, AK
“A compassionate, comprehensive, and readable
meditation on the implications of our diet for our physical, moral,
spiritual, and social well-being.” Norm Phelps, author, Dominion of Love, The Great Compassion, and The Longest Struggle
“The World Peace Diet should be
required reading for everyone regardless of their diet preferences.” Harold
Brown, environmental activist and former rancher and dairy
operator
“The World
Peace Diet is enthralling. You're pulled in from the very
beginning, when the author talks about the intimate nature and profound
ramifications of the simple act of deciding what to eat. Dr. Tuttle is
passionate and articulate without being condescending or pedantic. He
weaves together the accumulated wisdom of religious, philosophical, and
scientific thinkers through the ages.
“This book ties it all together, cohesively; from every angle and with
love and spirit, Will Tuttle implores us to stop the institutionalized
oppression of animals and destruction of the earth, and replace it with
lovingkindness and communion with Creation. His message is an updated
version of an ancient goal - peace on earth, goodwill toward all beings
- and his book helps propel us on that glorious journey.” Gary Loewenthal, originator,
the Vegan Bake Sale movement, Washington, DC
“The World Peace Diet is challenging,
stimulating and motivating. It is a hard read in many ways. “Hard” is productive in this case. Let this book be
like a spirit name. I urge you to take the book’s message in and let it
do its important work.” Rev. Marshall Norman, senior
minister, Unity Center of Madison, WI
“Dr. Tuttle's
brilliant, timely, and beautiful literary composition The
World Peace Diet is a critical evaluation of the
intellectual and emotional intelligence behind ethical veganism. Dr.
Tuttle elucidates our current health, environmental, moral, ethical,
and political condition as a consequence of our most fundamental
interaction with our environment—our diet—and offers a path which will
inevitably reduce the pain, suffering, and misery of this world through
a manifestation of the fundamental tenet of all world religions and
moral philosophies: the Golden Rule (to do unto others as we would have
them do unto us). Adam
Roufberg, radio talk show host, Free Range Thought

more reviews:
“A hundred years from now, The
World Peace Diet will be regarded as the book that saved
humanity.” Brent
Trafton
“I
am halfway through The World Peace Diet -- it is the
one and only true Bible.”
Todd Cameron
“I
can't put your World Peace Diet down! I don't think
that I have ever underlined a book so heavily.”Margaret
Daiss Hurley
“The
Word Peace Diet is the most profound book I've read in my
entire life. Will Tuttle's clear voice,
for those who cannot speak for themselves, rings out on every page. It
is the truth. I have never felt so free. If I were to do nothing more
than to promote the reading of The World Peace Diet
for the rest of my life, it would be a life well lived.” Lily Macy,
Redway, CA
“The
main reason I’m so comfortable in recommending The World Peace
Diet is that it is written with endless love: everyone who
reads the book feels included in the Oneness of Being. No one need feel
blamed for their previous violent way of eating. The World
Peace Diet opens eyes and ears and hearts, and once one
‘knows,’ there is no going back.”
Rohan Millson
“The
World Peace Diet is a stunning piece of beauty and a critical
call to action for us all--especially for those of us who claim to love
animals.”
Megan
St. Vincent Slattery
“This may well
be the work that supplies the world of the 21st century with the
paradigm it needs, now that Marx, Lenin, and Mao are rapidly becoming
irrelevant; and as liberalism becomes glaringly bankrupt. I used to
think that perhaps the work of Ken Wilber was going to meet the need,
but after reading The World Peace Diet I think Will
Tuttle is the one whose Weltanschauung the world is going to
adopt. This book has it all: history, philosophy, metaphysics, science,
spirituality, economics, ecology ...challenge and hope. “It is a
huge critique of the military-industrial-meat-medical-media
establishment of modern capitalism and its superstructure. The
revolution that's foreseen, however, in glaring contrast to the Marxian
violent kind, is a peaceful, easy-going one. The calibre of this book is proof enough that eating
a plant-based diet is excellent for intelligence.” Azim Amarshi,
Dhanyaa Center, Lausanne, Switzerland
John
Stephens: "I was at Green Festival today in Seattle, and attended a
talk by Congressman Dennis Kucinich, where he talked about how
individuals can make a difference by changing their diet. He
recommended The World Peace Diet, and held
up a copy of it for everyone to see, during his talk."
