How many of us - even those who use a computer every day - know how it really works? And what of Alan Turing, the man who was a major figure in the development of the computer? The man who helped to break the Enigma codes during the Second World War but who was largely forgotten after his death.

'Turing and the Computer' presents a brilliant snapshot of Turing's life and work, and gives a clear and accessible explanation of the importance and meaning of the computer and the way it has changed and shaped our lives in the twentieth century.
