Product details

The Book that inspired the film The Imitation Game

Summary:
The full story behind the persecuted genius of wartime code-breaking and the computer revolution. A new edition to celebrate Alan Turing's centenary, including a new foreword by the author and a preface by Douglas Hofstadter.
by the author:
Andrew Hodges is Tutor in Mathematics at Wadham College, Oxford University. His classic text of 1983, since translated into several languages, created a new kind of biography, with mathematics, science, computing, war history, philosophy and gay liberation woven into a single personal narrative. He is an active contributor to the mathematics of fundamental physics, as a follower of Roger Penrose. See www.turing.org.uk for further material.
