The book was written in form of memoir, where the author shared his views on his past career as a money manager and the institutional bias and incompetence of the U.S. judicial and penitentiary system. "“You hear about the basic fairness of the legal system and then you go through the process and there’s this cognitive dissonance between what you hear your whole life and what you experience. It was an urge, almost a necessity, to put that to paper..." ''"From a societal point of view, I learned what an abject disgrace our prison system is (really the entire criminal-justice system). While I get that it's supposed to be punitive, I find it hard to believe that the American public would allow it to exist in its present state if they knew what it was like."'' Originally published in March 2017 by Skyhorse Publishing, the book received mostly favorable reviews, ranging from critical acclaim for honest retrospection into personal biography In June 2022, he co-authored a book entitled Mastering the Basics of Bitcoin and Crypto with co-author Charlie Shrem. ==Works==
