Nickel and Dimed: On (Not) Getting By in America is a book written by Barbara Ehrenreich. Written from her perspective as an undercover journalist, it sets out to investigate the impact of the 1996 welfare reform act on the working poor in the United States.
The events related in the book took place between spring 1998 and summer 2000. The book was first published in 2001 by Metropolitan Books. An earlier version appeared as an article in the January 1999 issue of Harper's magazine. Ehrenreich later wrote a companion book, Bait and Switch (published September 2005), which discusses her attempt to find a white-collar job.
Barbara Ehrenreich is an American writer and political activist who describes herself as "a myth buster by trade", and has been called "a veteran muckraker" by The New Yorker.During the 1980s and early 1990s she was a prominent figure in the Democratic Socialists of America. She is a widely read and award-winning columnist and essayist, and author of 21 books. Ehrenreich is perhaps best known for her 2001 book Nickel and Dimed: On (Not) Getting By in America. A memoir of Ehrenreich's three-month experiment surviving on minimum wage as a waitress, hotel maid, house cleaner, nursing-home aide, and Wal-Mart clerk, it was described by Newsweek magazine as "jarring" and "full of riveting grit",and by The New Yorker as an "exposé" putting "human flesh on the bones of such abstractions as 'living wage' and 'affordable housing'"

评分少一颗星是因为作者没有(或许不敢)提出解决问题的建议,当然这也不是她(生物学博士)的专项。这本书出版的时候,有多少人注意到了社会分化的问题?所以不要纠结这本书的学术性了,写成专著有谁会看呢?
评分SOCL102课无聊的Textbook, 太过于浅显易懂而且没有深入思考了,好吧最后的Evaluation部分还可以,但这种体验生活的Field Trip方式对我而言实在是既没有社会学调查的严谨,也没有理论思想的深刻,只能是作家的无聊小随笔? Chris
看到豆瓣上的那些吐槽,怀疑真的读了这本书吗? 让人拙计啊。 这说的主要是一个中产女作家,为了体验blue collar人民的生活,分别跑去了美国的三个地方,做角色体验:没有住所的单身母亲。 她必须找到工作,最低工资 必须找到住的地方,这个有点复杂,因为她会付更多的钱住MOTE...
评分前阵知乎上曾讨论过“生活大爆炸”中Penny的收入能否真的让她过得比较滋润,当时有人引据各种美国的生活数据,证明她是可以过得还不错的。不久之后又看到这本亲历女服务员生活的书,才发现了阳光下的另一面。 《我在底层的生活》,也就是芭芭拉的《Nickel and Dimed》。在《社...
评分 评分书就是书名所说的,我在底层的生活。 “我”, 芭芭拉,美国畅销书作者,生活水平属于上游20%的人。有天在一个颇为奢华的法式乡村风饭店跟《哈泼》杂志的编辑讨论未来可以替他们写什么文章,当话题转到贫穷时,说了一句“实在应该有人去做一些老式的新闻调查工作,就是自己实...
