Schneider, A., & Wright, C. (2006). Contemporary Art and Anthropology. NY, NY: Berg.

I have yet to really get into this book I found at the library. It is a book with different articles by different authors. I did the source for the entire book for now, until I decide which articles I use. With my topic being Contemporary Art, I couldn’t resist it.

Rugg, J., & Sedgwick, M. (2007). Issues in Curating Contemporary Art and Performance. Chicago, IL: Intellect Ltd..

This is another book complied of different authors. I am going to interview the owner of at least one gallery in Charleston and I thought that this might have good information to go along with my own personal findings.

Smith, T. (2007). Contemporary Art + Philanthropy. Sydney, AUS: University of South Wales Press Ltd..

I like the concept of this books title. There is an article in it titled, “A Firm Foundation for Devloping Culture” by David Elliot that deals with the definition of contemporary art and trying to grasp at what it is.

This article challenges the somewhat ethnocentric notion that only English should be tolerated in the ESL classroom. It would be interesting to know what actually is most effective.

Part of my project might tentatively examine various parts of the immigrant experience, including reasons for or against becoming fully integrated and learning English. I am curious to know if learning English might be seen as an escape from a poor occupational environment.

This book is great because it gives insight into parenting children with disabilities, but through a different perspective, the fathers.

Vukovic, Laurel. “Total Wellness Guide”. Better Nutrition (September, 2009). 34-38.

As the title states, this article gives advice about how to be well. As a result, the reader gains an understanding of what wellness means.  Because I want to explore people’s ideas about wellness, it is extremely important that I have an understanding of the working definition of wellness. This article gives the reader tips to gain energy, have less stress, and lose weight.  The author advises taking many vitamin supplements for different purposes.  Furthermore, sleep, diet, and exercise are very important parts of being well.

Hodge, David R., Limb, Gordon E., Cross, Terry L. “Moving from Colonization toward Balance and Harmony: A Native American Perspective on Wellness”. Social Work Vol. 54, No. 3 (July 2009). 211-219.

This article gives the Native American definition of wellness: balance and harmony between spirit, body, mind, and context or environment.  The article places an emphasis on mental health, which can only be achieved, as the authors state, through balance and harmony between the interconnected areas of self.

Gee, Gilbert C., Payne-Sturges, Devon C. “Environmental Health Disparities: A Framework Integrating Psychosocial and Environmental Concepts”. Environmental Health Perspectives, Vol. 112, No. 17 (December, 2004). 1645-1653.

Minorities bear the burden of environmental hazards while the majority has a not-in-my-back-yard attitude toward the issue. The authors believe that this is not the only reason for differences in mortality rates and general health issues.  They have a more mind-over-matter paradigm and propose that the difference is actually due to psychosocial stress.  They concede that environmental hazards are not good for people or the environment, but they believe that the reason groups are differentially susceptible to health hazards is due to stress.  This is an interesting article because it exposes the flipside of my project interests.

Custer, Marcia. “Stress, Life Events, and the Epidemiology of Wellness”. Journal of Community Health Nursing, Vol. 2, No. 4 (1985). 215-222.

In an effort to bridge the “gap between research and practice”, the author explores areas of preventative care related to stress management and illness as well as clinical practice based on the standing research.  The author defines stress as, “those variables that require organisms to effect some modification in order to maintain homeostasis.” Stress can come in many forms.  I may discover that some individuals are affected by environmental stressors and are actively trying to manage that stress.
