Alan Turing: The Enigma [Abridged]

I just bought an ebook version of this book because I couldn't wait for delivery of the paper version. I've been interested in Alan Turning years before this sudden mass media burst; and delighted to see his intelligence and accomplishments be recognized.
I'm almost done reading the intros and preface, which are unusually long, but give great background to this man and the world in which he lived. This information is extremely important because his times were so different than they are now in many respects. I shall read on with pleasure and curiosity.

Same with me, knew who was years ago in the 70's and was always mystified that more people didn't know who he was. I can relate to him in a very intense way. In college my Boolean Algebra class held a revolt and tried to get me kicked off the grading curve. The prof turned them down. I ended working for the same people Alan Turing did and had 30+ year career full of Dennistons and Menzies, -- real ones, not like them but their doppelgangers. Anyway I am retired now.
