The Man Who Knew Too Much: Alan Turing and the Invention of the Computer (Great Discoveries)

Ben Nathan

It's really quite engaging when discussing his life and the math theory. The only issue is that it spends a bit too much time talking about the mechanisms in the programming of the time. It could have been summed up in much less time and is revisited many times. That said, I quite enjoyed it and for anyone that's a big math/computer nerd, I would suggest it for sure.
