The first authoritative volume to look back on the last 50 years of The Open University providing higher education to those in prison, this unique book gives voice to ex-prisoners whose lives have been transformed by the education they received. Offering vivid personal testimonies, reflective vignettes and academic analysis of prison life and education in prison, the book marks the 50th anniversary of The Open University.

'This important book documents the vital work done by the Open University in the development of prison education and provides valuable insights into the positive impact of this work upon individual prisoners.' Ivana Bacik, Trinity College Dublin
