As far as books on juicing go, these four are the cream of the crop. When it comes to learning more about juicing, read these books first. They're all very well written and they are packed with loads of great information.
These books on juicing are ranked in no particular order. They're all good, so either pick one or read them all!
1. Complete Book of Juicing - Michael T. Murray
One of the best things about this book is that it references plenty of reputable scientific publications. So if you're interested in the science behind juicing, this book is an excellent choice!
Like a few other authors, Murray highlights the link between the western diet and modern health problems. As we've consumed more fatty food our cancer, heart disease and stroke rates have gone through the roof.
Murray takes a good look at how juicing can solve this problem. It's a great read, and it's packed with some awesome recipes. However, some of the recipes are pretty extreme and might make you a little queasy. They are however, good for you anyway.
2. The Juicing Book - Stephen Blauer
Of the various books on juicing, this one is probably one of the oldest. It's from 1989 so you'd expect some outdated fluff to be contained inside.
This could not be further from the truth. Blauer gives nutritional information as well as makes some great recommendations for specific health conditions.

3. Total Juicing - Elaine LaLanne
Again, a wonderful book. Along with the standard nutritional information, LaLanne goes beyond the call of duty and explains how to use the pulp in cooking. Yes, that means never wasting a drop of what you make.
This book on juicing is actually written by Jack LaLanne's wife. Jack LaLanne is known by many as the godfather of fitness and health, and his wife is no different.

4. Juicing for Life - Cherie Calbom
This is probably one of the most practical books on juicing around. It's super easy to take anything from this book and put it to practice in the kitchen immediately.
Along with the basics, it's packed with extensive information on juicing for specific disorders, modifying your diet to suit, what nutrients you need to be getting and more.
If you're looking for practical info, go no further than this book.
