New PM book on the market: Polygamy in the Pews

The writer specifically used ambiguous language in an attempt to create a book which presents the basics of the arguments in an easy-to-understand format which will not immediately be rejected by someone who isn't already comfortable with the subject.
Basically, the intent was to allow people to read their own stance into the book (Pro or Con), long enough for them to at least get some exposure to the ideas before their knee-jerk reaction shuts down their ability to give a fair hearing to the concept.
 
Jacob thank you for volunteering to provide a full book review, looking forward to it ;)
 
The book is short and, I believe, easy to read, and probably doesn't provide any information or argument points that people here wouldn't already be familiar with. As stated above, however, it was written in such a way that hopefully people's prejudices wouldn't cause them to reject it out of hand. My brother stated that he think's people will begin to suspect it is pro-pm about halfway through.
 
Kind of like a chick tract, but with more words ;)

Maybe the last page should have a list of next steps to take?
 
steps to take... like a field guide for how to lose friends and alienate people? 101 ways to not bring the topic up with wife #1? Top ten reasons why bringing the subject up with your father-in-law while on a backwoods hunting trip is a bad idea?

Or are we talking:

1. Breathe in and out of the paper bag until your nerves settle
2. Perhaps do a little more research/talk to people on the BF forum, etc., before you march into the bedroom with a "Guess what, honey!"
3. Pray, pray, pray
4. (Repeat #3)
5. (Repeat #4)
