Introduction: When workers disappear -- Down in the hole: steelmaking Pittsburgh in the 1950s -- Dirty laundry: labor and love in the working-class home -- "You are only poor if you have no one to turn to": race, geography, and cooperation -- Doctor New Deal: social rights and the making of the health care market -- Enduring disaster: the recycling of the working class -- "The task of survival": the commodification of care and the transformation of labor -- Epilogue: "All I am worth".
"This is the first comprehensive account of the health care workers who have been at the forefront of our fight against COVID-19. In fact, America's economy and politics have been, for years, increasingly defined by the growth of the healthcare industry, yet we have lacked convincing accounts of its rise and make-up. Winant delivers an incisive investigation of this new world"-- Provided by publisher.
