Product Description

Alan M. Turing

Review

'The book is full of brilliant treasures, anecdotal accounts of Turing's eccentricity and genius, and insights into his science ... This little book, with its kaleidoscopic picture of Alan Turing's short life, goes some way towards de-coding his mind, and his family.' The Guardian

'Well-written and tackles some of Turing's mathematical work.' Engineering and Technology

'... the readers of the new edition can benefit from a previously unpublished memoir by Alan's older brother John, as well as a new foreword by Martin Davis; both texts provide a different view of Alan Turing, and represent a nice complement to the main part of the book.' Antonin Slavik, Zentralblatt MATH
