Here's the FATFREE Resources list which lists all McDougall and Ornish books (but no articles). Each listing indicates whether it is primarily vegan, ovo, lacto, etc. Unless the annotation says the book is heavy on egg/milk products, the ovo-lacto books are also good sources of vegan recipes and advice.
