读后感
最近两三年，中文网络世界发生了一个明显的话语变化：穷人的形象从整体相对正面或至少是得到同情，几乎180度地转向负面——穷人，包括贫困地区、底层阶级，越来越明显成为批判与嘲讽的对象。在一开始，这种转变还多为个案性的叙述与道德评价（比如讲述一个贫穷的亲戚如何想方设...
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...
评分大一上专业课的时候，有位讲师貌似简略提起过这本书，所以在网上碰巧遇到时就下单购买了。具体是不是这本书我也不是很清楚，但即使不是，内容也是相似的，起码讨论的话题有交叠。 读书最忌囫囵吞枣，而合上书本以后，我陷入思考，不想“浪费”，于是写下此文记录自己不成熟的看...
评分 评分有意思，文中美元换成人民币就是前几年我在二线城市的收入和消费水平，简直一模一样！ 10年我在沃尔玛工作，时薪是7.5元。一个月加满班230个小时（规定加班不能超过50小时好像），这样一个月扣去社保到手就只有1400元不到。离市区近的地方出租的小隔间（十平不到） 一个月房租 ...

恶性循环太可怕。
评分又是一本课程推荐书。作者那种精英思维的写作方式不能忍了，居然说" I am a princess who, in penance for some tiny transgression, has undertaken to feed each of her subjects by hand."不过要是作者写田野调查的事情的时候还要考虑很多的话自己的情绪就无法表达，这样也不会是bestseller了。所以还是认真读一下
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

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？
