{"product_id":"book-es38","title":"Dirty Work","description":"Drone pilots who carry out targeted assassinations. Undocumented immigrants who man the \"kill floors\" of industrial slaughterhouses. Guards who patrol the wards of America's most violent and abusive prisons. In \u003ci\u003eDirty Work\u003c\/i\u003e, Eyal Press offers a paradigm-shifting view of the moral landscape of contemporary America through the stories of people who perform society's most ethically troubling jobs. As Press shows, we are increasingly shielded and distanced from an array of morally questionable activities that other, less privileged people perform in our name.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe COVID-19 pandemic has drawn unprecedented attention to the issue of \"essential workers,\" and to the health and safety risks to which workers in prisons and slaughterhouses are exposed. But \u003ci\u003eDirty Work\u003c\/i\u003e examines another, less familiar set of occupational hazards: psychological and emotional hardships such as stigma, shame, PTSD, and moral injury. These burdens fall disproportionately on low-income workers, undocumented immigrants, women, and people of color.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIlluminating the moving, at times harrowing stories of the people doing society's dirty work, and incisively examining the structures of power and complicity that shape their lives, Press reveals fundamental truths about the moral dimensions of work, and the hidden costs of inequality in America.","brand":"Highbridge Audio","offers":[{"title":"Audiobook","offer_id":49363389677872,"sku":"BDes38","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Audio CD","offer_id":49363389841712,"sku":"ZEes38","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Audio MP3-CD","offer_id":49363390038320,"sku":"ZMes38","price":45.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0879\/2784\/9264\/files\/es38-cover.jpg?v=1765860895","url":"https:\/\/downpour.com\/products\/book-es38","provider":"Downpour","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
