Subject: Re: Sociology of Everyday Life
I don't know exactly what soc. of everyday life is, but here are two
possibly relevant books:

* Habits of the Heart, by a group of people including Ann Swidler.
A history and survey, cultural style with interviews, of how Americans
choose to live their lives.  How much does career matter?  How much does
family matter?  From where does one get one's identity (e.g. being in
clubs)?

* The Managed Heart, by ___.  (Sorry, I'm bad on names today.)
This is a story of how flight attendants are trained, especially  how they
are taught to manage their emotions and always look happy no matter how
frustrating things get.  The customer is always right, etc..  But at what
cost to the flight attendants' themselves?


Best of luck with your course,
