Typo of the Day

[nonionay]

I'm reading a book on Polygamy, specifically the chapter on Mormon polygamy, and they're talking about weddings:
"In some cases, established wives actively participate in their husband's plural wedding...(which) allows them to make wows to each other."

[EDIT: More confusing word fun: I just saw the headline, "Raver Killed By Bass" and thought it meant the fish.]

What book are you reading? I wonder if I've read some of it.

It's this book. (http://books.google.com/books?id=WIzHjpTJgdQC&printsec=frontcover#v=onepage&q=&f=false) Polygamy, a Cross Cultural Analysis, by Miriam Koktvedgaard-Zeitzen. That Google preview doesn't include the Mormon chapters or indeed, most of the book. The chapters on specific cultures are good, but the ones on polygamy and modernity are kind of muddled and contradictory and frustrating.

Huh, my first thought was also fish!
