While I was in prison, I received The Rise of the Creative Class. I also received an Artificial Intelligence textbook as well. And I received Headstrong.

I did a lot of reading. In fact, once I got a chance to go to the computer lab, I wrote upwards of 100 articles. I wrote articles about introductory AI, health, and science.




Addendum: I also read a couple dozen business books from the prison library. Was quite good.


How was the experience?


The overall experience of prison monumentally sucked. From the thin mattresses on the beds to the extreme lack of stimulating things to do...but I got through it. Having books sent by my dad really did help the experience.
