Speaking of prisons, I'm reading "The Expanding Prison" by David Cayley right 
now. It's all about how ridiculous the criminal justice system is these days, 
how it got that way, and what the alternatives are. Cayley isn't an anarchist 
but this book is probably the closest thing out there to anarchist penology.

P.S. "Ideas" (a show on CBC radio) will be doing a five-part series on 
alternative justice practices beginning June 26. The website should have 
further details.
