One of my favorites.
Awesome mystery with twists. Kept me engaged and interested. Read in 2-3 days.
Well, I got about as far as I could go in this one. It introduces some great basic economics like market equilibrium and price elasticity; it also brings to light real world examples of how even the best examples of socialism are deeply flawed just as the best example of capitalism, the USA, has deep flaws. I couldn't recommend this to anyone. It's kind of disappointing. And the partisan jokes were rarely funny. It's a three star book as far as I'm concerned.
I was captivated by this powerful book, and I felt tremendous empathy for the real workers chronicled by this journalist. Good premise for a book: she takes the most minimum wage type jobs and sees what it’s like to try to live in our society, and she shows just how nearly impossible that is. Barbara Ehrenreich is a journalist who can sure write an interesting, and unfortunately sobering nonfiction, book.
