For the first time in the history of humanity, we do not really have a good grip on what the role of humans is on the planet.This predicament...

The life of Alan Turing was much more than the story of a mathematical genius. This book traces his childhood, his precocious brilliance, his decisive role in World War II, the birth of modern computing, and his visionary ideas about artificial intelligence.
