Abstract
It is only a slight exaggeration to say that theBritish mathematician Alan Turing (1912-1954) saved theAllies from the Nazis, invented the computer andartificial intelligence, and anticipated gay liberationby decades--all before his suicide at age forty-one.This classic biography of the founder of computerscience, reissued on the centenary of his birth with asubstantial new preface by the author, is thedefinitive account of an extraordinary mind and life. Agripping story of mathematics, computers, cryptography,and homosexual persecution, Andrew Hodges's acclaimedbook captures both.
