About this Book
Synopsis
In this study of America's minimum wage workers, the author explains how she went under cover several times, taking on different low-wage positions, to determine how adults who lack higher education survive. After working at Wal-Mart and as a waitress, she concluded that the working poor should be afforded more health care, housing assistance, and respect. A New York Times Notable Book for 2001.

Industry Reviews
"Sharp, empathetic, astute...."
Kirkus Reviews (04/01/2001)

"[A] valuable and illuminating book."
New York Times Book Review - Dorothy Gallagher (05/13/2001)

"[A] clear-eyed portrait of how the bottom third lives, and a complacency-shaking expose of the dead-end-job economy."
Entertainment Weekly - Megan Harlan (05/25/2001)

"Half-assed as her attempts to learn unfamiliar jobs may have been--and as funny as she sometimes makes the experience seem--Ehrenreich is still engaged in a serious project."
Nation (06/11/2001)

"...Ehrenreich's account of trying to survive on the breadline in three American cities is shocking, touching and unexpectedly funny."
Times Literary Supplement - Joan Smith (12/27/2002)

"NICKEL AND DIMED is one of the most significant works of social criticism any American leftist has written since the 1960s."
Nation - Michael Kazin (10/03/2005)
