Summary "A revelatory account of poverty in America so deep that we, as a country, don't think it exists. After two decades of brilliant research on American poverty, Kathryn Edin noticed something she hadn't seen since the mid-1990s -- households surviving on virtually no income. Edin teamed with Luke Shaefer, an expert on calculating incomes of the poor. More than a powerful expose, $2.00 a Day delivers new evidence and new ideas to our national debate on income inequality"--Provided by the publisher.
