{"product_id":"9781595587299","title":"The Betrayal of Work: How Low-wage Jobs Fail 30 Million Americans And Their Families","description":"Following its publication in hardcover, the critically acclaimed \u003ci\u003eBetrayal of Work\u003c\/i\u003e became one of the most influential policy books about economic life in America; it was discussed in the pages of \u003ci\u003eNewsweek\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eBusiness Week\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eFortune\u003c\/i\u003e, the \u003ci\u003eWashington Post\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eNewsday\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eUSA Today\u003c\/i\u003e, as well as in public policy journals and in broadcast interviews, including a one-on-one with Bill Moyers on PBS’s \u003ci\u003eNOW\u003c\/i\u003e. The \u003ci\u003eAmerican Prospect\u003c\/i\u003e’s James K. Galbraith’s praise was typical: “Shulman’s slim and graceful book is a model combination of compelling portraiture, common sense, and understated conviction.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBeth Shulman’s powerfully argued book offers a full program to address the injustice faced by the 30 million Americans who work full time but do not make a living wage. As the influential Harvard Business School newsletter put it, Shulman “specifically outlines how structural changes in the economy may be achieved, thus expanding opportunities for all Americans.” This edition includes a new afterword that intervenes in the post-election debate by arguing that low-wage work is an urgent moral issue of our time.","brand":"New Press, The","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47151221276912,"sku":"9781595587299","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781595587299_p0.jpg?v=1769901318","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781595587299","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
