The bestselling, landmark work of undercover reportage, now updated Acclaimed as an instant classic upon publication, Nickel and Dimed has sold more than 1.5 million copies and become a staple of classroom reading. Chosen for “one book” initiatives across the country, it has fueled nationwide campaigns for a living wage. Funny, poignant, and passionate, this revelatory firsthand account of life in low-wage America—the story of Barbara Ehrenreich’s attempts to eke out a living while working as a waitress, hotel maid, house cleaner, nursing-home aide, and Wal-Mart associate—has become an essential part of the nation’s political discourse. Now, in a new afterword, Ehrenreich shows that the plight of the underpaid has in no way eased: with fewer jobs available, deteriorating work conditions, and no pay increase in sight, Nickel and Dimed is more relevant than ever.
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'"
She lives near Key West, Florida.

评分反思之余其实有高级阶级的优越感
评分Her spirit of experimentation as a social scientist is really worth applauses, for it takes a countless amount of courage and determination to truly turn those ideas into practice. Nonetheless, this book is hard to read for it is somewhat excessively redundant.

自己會對這書感興趣,源于在別處偶然看到的評論,大意提到作者在超市打工時,在精神和身體雙重折磨的高壓下,怎樣從一個心懷憐憫、關心底層、遠見卓識的Intellectuel,逐步被同化爲她的“一些底層同事”那樣——苛刻、狡猾、小肚鷄腸、滿懷怨恨。而我則同樣非常能夠理解“離人...
