aNNOTATED bIBLIOGRAPHY sAMPLE
Ehrenreich, B. (2001).
Nickel and dimed: On (not) getting by in America. New York, NY: Henry Holt and Company.
In this book of nonfiction based on the journalist’s experiential research, Ehrenreich
attempts to ascertain whether it is currently possible for an individual to live on a minimum wage in America. Taking jobs as a waitress, a maid in a cleaning service, and a Walmart sales employee, the author summarizes and reflects on her work, her relationships with fellow workers, and her financial struggles in each situation.
An experienced journalist, Ehrenreich is aware of the limitations of her experiment and the ethical implications of her experiential research tactics and reflects on these issues in the text. The author is forthcoming about her methods and supplements her experiences with scholarly research on her places of employment, the economy, and the rising cost of living in America. Ehrenreich’s project is timely, descriptive, and well-researched.
The value of this source lies in Ehrenreich’s ethical considerations as a researcher. Ehrenreich sought an objective viewpoint in her work as a researcher on a topic that’s impacted her work life balance for the last 10 years. This source supports future analysis of ethical considerations for researchers who might find difficulty remaining unbiased in their research.
