[LM_NET] Books like Nickel and Dimed

[Cathy Rettberg <crettberg@MENLOSCHOOL.ORG>]

A student has asked if there is a name for the genre of books that
includes Black Like Me, Nickel and Dimed, etc - books where someone
pretends to be someone else and then reports on findings. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Cathy
