Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the Leaves Turn Gold examines the challenges and opportunities around aging for Asian American women and men in the United States. The book looks at a range of Asian Americans—affluent and poor, third-generation natives and recent immigrants, political exiles and recent migrants, people who immigrated early in life and those who immigrated late in life—and features interview excerpts that bring these issues to life. The book shows how the life courses of individuals, including discrimination they may have faced in earlier years, can shape their golden years. As they grow older, Asian Americans continue to struggle to fit into American society—this is true even of those who are highly educated, relatively affluent, and have lived and worked with non-Asian Americans for most of their lives. As the Leaves Turn Gold discusses not only the challenges older Asian Americans face, such as lack of adequate support services, but also local and transnational solutions. As the Leaves Turn Gold is an important examination of aging, immigration, and social inequality.

Chinatown Pretty shares nuggets of philosophical wisdom and personal stories about immigration and Chinese-American culture. This book is great for anyone looking for advice on how to live to a ripe old age with grace and good humor—and, of course, on how to stay stylish. • This book will resonate with photography buffs, fashionistas, and Asian Americans of all ages. • Chinatown Pretty has been featured by Vogue.com, San Francisco Chronicle, Design Sponge, Rookie, Refinery29, and others. • With a textured cover and glossy bellyband, this beautiful volume makes a deluxe gift. • Add it to the shelf with books like Humans of New York by Brandon Stanton, Advanced Style by Ari Seth Cohen, and Fruits by Shoichi Aoki.

Download or read book The Asian Indian Elderly in America written by Jyotsna Mirle Kalavar and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 1998 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Culture shock, role reversal, and adapting to a new society are major challenges for immigrants to meet. For older immigrants, a move to a Western society with a remarkably different sociocultural milieu can be overwhelming and stressful. Perhaps because of the media stereotypes of Asians as the "model minority", the fact that most have immigrated recently, and the assumption that Asian Americans take care of their own, scant attention has been paid to the issues of older Asian immigrants.Acknowledging the diversity among older Asian Indian immigrants to the United States, this book evaluates their life satisfaction. This study conducted with 50 elderly Asian Indian immigrants finds that gender differences in levels of life satisfaction were significant, and that self-assessed health is the strongest predictor of life satisfaction. Other contributors to life satisfaction included reasons for coming to the United States, living arrangement, and social networks. The historical and sociocultural framework for aging in India is presented as a contextualizing exercise for the study of older Asian Indians in the United States. This study addresses the issues of cultural barriers, intergenerational relations, and filial piety, and highlights the implications for gerontological practice.
