'Tense and intimate... an education.' Geoff Dyer 'Written with sensitivity and humanity... a remarkable insight into prison life.' Amanda Brown 'Authentic, fascinating and deeply moving.' Terry Waite 'Enriching, sobering and at times heartrending... a wonder' Lenny Henry __________ Can someone in prison be more free than someone outside? Would we ever be good if we never felt shame? What makes a person worthy of forgiveness? Andy West teaches philosophy in prisons. Every day he has conversations with people inside about their lives, discusses their ideas and feelings, and listens as they explore new ways to think about their situation. When Andy goes behind bars, he also confronts his inherited trauma: his father, uncle and brother all spent time in prison. While Andy has built a different life for himself, he still fears that their fate will also be his. As he discusses pressing questions of truth, identity and hope with his students, he searches for his own form of freedom too. Moving, sympathetic, wise and frequently funny, The Life Inside is an elegantly written and unforgettable book. Through a blend of memoir, storytelling and gentle philosophical questioning, it offers a new insight into our stretched justice system, our failing prisons and the complex lives being lived inside. __________ 'Strives with humour and compassion to understand the phenomenon of prison' Sydney Review of Books 'A fascinating and enlightening journey... A legitimate page-turner' 3AM

'As the author of a new book, Professionalizing Leadership, in which I take on the leadership industry, specifically the often careless and casual way in which we profess to teach how to lead, it gives me particular pleasure to highly recommend Teaching Leadership by Perruci and Hall. Though it's possible to take issue with some specifics, to anyone with any interest in leadership as pedagogical practice, especially but not exclusively at the undergraduate level, I say this book is not to be missed.' - Barbara Kellerman, Harvard University, US and author of, among others, The End of Leadership, Followership, and Bad Leadership 'This book is a must read for educators and students who want to master the fine art of developing leaders and becoming leaders.' - Prasad Kaipa, Kaipa Group, US 'Teaching Leadership takes the reader from leadership traits to leadership transformation, and models the pedagogy it professes. Those of us who bridge theory and practice on a daily basis will find the historical, theoretical, and philosophical context in which leadership education, training and development are defined an invaluable prism through which we better understand the why, what and how of leadership. While this book comes close to being the canon we incessantly seek, the authors intentionally avoid this. Instead, they present an integrated complexity of information with glorious clarity. The coalescence of scientific knowledge, philosophical grounding, intentionality, reflection, preparation, thoroughness, program design and evaluation on which Teaching Leadership is based, is a benchmark for best practice in teaching and forming leadership.' - Katherine Tyler Scott, Ki ThoughtBridge LLC, US Can we really teach leadership? Yes, we can, and this book provides innovative ways of doing so.

It emphasizes lessons learned as a result of decades of experience in the design, implementation, and evaluation of nationally recognized leadership programs.
