Includes a new foreword by the author and a preface by Douglas
Hofstadter.
Turing's far-sighted plans for the digital era forged ahead into a
vision for Artificial Intelligence. However, in 1952 his
homosexuality rendered him a criminal and he was subjected to
humiliating treatment. In 1954, aged 41, Alan Turing committed
suicide and one of Britain's greatest scientific minds was lost.
