People everywhere know that meals prepared without heat can taste great and improve their overall health. Yet raw cuisine cookbooks have always offered little variety - until now. In The World Goes Raw Cookbook, raw food chef Lisa Mann provides a fresh approach to (un)cooking with recipes that have an international twist.

After discussing the healthfulness of a raw food diet, The World Goes Raw Cookbook tells you how to stock your kitchen with the tools and ingredients that make it easy to prepare raw meals. What follows are six recipe chapters, each focused on a different ethnic cuisine, including Italian, Mexican, Middle Eastern, Asian, Caribbean, and South American dishes. And from soups and starters to desserts, every one's a winner. There are even easy-to-follow instructions for growing fresh ingredients in your own kitchen garden.

Whether you are already interested in raw food or are exploring it for the first time, the taste-tempting recipes in The World Goes Raw can add variety to your life while helping you feel healthier and more energized.
