Nickel and Dimed: On (Not) Getting By in America

The best parts were the introduction and evaluation chapters. I wasn't impressed with the writing. Her empathy of the "working poor" did not move me as much as Morgan Spurlock's television show 28 Days, episode on poverty. Published in 2001, some of the data is out of date.
