A friend has complained to you about being sick for much of the past month. He tells you that his allergies are unusually bad this semester and he has caught cold after cold. The week before finals, he found out his parents were getting a divorce, and the same week, his girlfriend told him she was in love with his best friend. The dorm was so noisy he was unable to study for exams. He has tried drowning his troubles by drinking, but this only made him feel worse. What can you tell your friend about his stress level and how stress can affect his body

In writing about her findings in a brazilian shantytown, nancy scheper-hughes’s account of alto do cruzeiro provides a window into the terrible toll of nonconsensual organ harvesting among the poor, as well as how she herself changed over time. how might an anthropologist justify the publication of this ethnographic research when considering the problem of ethnographic authority? a. all of the poor must be given an equal voice, thus polyvocality is justification. b. anthropologists are themselves changed in fieldwork, and so honest reflexivity is justification. c. the horrific conditions made it impossible to ignore, and since she obtained informed consent, this is justification. d. authoritative writing asks us to consider what right we have to report, thus a moral challenge is justification.
