Inhoud:

Offers a much-needed analysis of the teaching of college writing in US prisons. Through the examination of a college-in-prison program that promotes the belief that higher education in prison can reduce recidivism and improve life prospects, Patrick W. Berry exposes not only incarcerated students' hopes and dreams for their futures but also their anxieties about whether education will help them.
