This is not the easiest read and of necessity due to the brevity of the book it is provokingly abstruse at times

It is more than likely that that reader will be stimulated to reach out to find more detailed accounts of the many topics that defined turing’s life and death including the development of computers the birth and evolution of artificial intelligence the anglo american polish alliance that crippled hitler’s war efforts and the role of english civilians in that war

Perhaps these episodes could have been expanded but that would have bogged down the flow of the book
