"It is only a slight exaggeration to say that the British mathematician ALan Turing (1912-1954) saved the Allies from the Nizis and invented the computer and artificial intelligence -- all before his suicide at age forty-one. Andrew Hodges tells how Turing's revolutionary ideas laid the foundation for the modern comuter, and how he took a leading role in breaking the German Enigma ciphers during World War II, a scientific triumph that was critical to Allied victory in the Atlantic. This is also the tragic account of a man who, despite his wartime service, was arrested and force to undergo a humiliating treatment program -- all for trying to live hoestly in a society that defined homosexuality as a crime. The inspiration for a major motion picture starring Benedict Cumberbatch and Keira Knightley, this acclaimed biography is the definitive account of an extraordinary mind and life." -- from the rear outer cover. "One of the finest scientific biographies ever written." -- Jim Holt, New Yorker. "One of the finest scientific biographies I've ever read: authoritative, superbly researched, deeply sympathetic, and beautifully told." -- Sylvia Nasar, author of A Beautiful Mind.
