Alan Turing invented the computer and helped win World War II by breaking the Enigma code. He left us with one of the greatest puzzles of our time: are humans simply computers or more than that? Many scientists think we have a tenuous hold on being the most intelligent beings on the planet and that it's just a matter of time before computers become smarter than us. This book charts a journey through the science of information, from the origins of language and logic to the frontiers of modern physics. The author, James Tagg, is an inventor and entrepreneur who has founded several companies and holds numerous patents.
