Languages : en
Pages : 160
Book Description
Published in association with the Turing Trust, this challenging collection of number crunch puzzles will really put your numerical skills to the test. Follow in the footsteps of famous World War II codebreaker Alan Turing who used impeccable logic to decipher the military codes used by Germany and its allies. These expert puzzles offer a tough but enjoyable metal work-out, with puzzles in three levels of difficulty. Starting at the top with the number provided, your challenge is work downwards from one box to another, applying the mathematical instructions to your running total until you reach a final answer. You can write the answer to each step down, or to really stretch yourself, keep the running total in your head, which is easier said than done! This book includes a foreword written by Sir Dermot Turing, nephew of Alan Turing and trustee of the former British codebreaking HQ, Bletchley Park. Sales of these books support the work of The Turing Trust, a charity set up by Alan Turing's family which provides much needed computers to schools in Africa. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Turing Tests are a series of innovative puzzle books, inspired by the ingenious problem-solving skills of World War II codebreaker Alan Turing.

The Turing Guide
Author: Jack Copeland
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0191065005
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 563
Book Description
Alan Turing has long proved a subject of fascination, but following the centenary of his birth in 2012, the code-breaker, computer pioneer, mathematician (and much more) has become even more celebrated with much media coverage, and several meetings, conferences and books raising public awareness of Turing's life and work. This volume will bring together contributions from some of the leading experts on Alan Turing to create a comprehensive guide to Turing that will serve as a useful resource for researchers in the area as well as the increasingly interested general reader. The book will cover aspects of Turing's life and the wide range of his intellectual activities, including mathematics, code-breaking, computer science, logic, artificial intelligence and mathematical biology, as well as his subsequent influence.

Code Warriors
Author: Stephen Budiansky
Publisher: Knopf
ISBN: 0385352662
Category : Cryptography
Languages : en
Pages : 433
Book Description
In Code Warriors, Stephen Budiansky--a longtime expert in cryptology--tells the fascinating story of how NSA came to be, from its roots in World War II through the fall of the Berlin Wall. Along the way, he guides us through the fascinating challenges faced by cryptanalysts, and how they broke some of the most complicated codes of the twentieth century. With access to new documents, Budiansky shows where the agency succeeded and failed during the Cold War, but his account also offers crucial perspective for assessing NSA today in the wake of the Edward Snowden revelations. Budiansky shows how NSA's obsession with recording every bit of data and decoding every signal is far from a new development; throughout its history the depth and breadth of the agency's reach has resulted in both remarkable successes and destructive failures.

Book Description
Published in association with The Turing Trust, this incredible collection of puzzles allows you to put your codebreaking skills to the test - if you can solve every puzzle in the book you might once have been recruited to join the ranks of Alan Turing and the Bletchley Park codebreakers! Alan Turing is often called the father of modern computing. During the Second World War, he worked at Bletchley Park where top-secret work was carried out to decipher the military codes. Turing played a pivotal role in cracking their intercepted coded messages and helping the Allies win the war. This collection contains an incredible range of different puzzle types and so presents a wonderfully entertaining challenge for any puzzle lover. The puzzles are arranged into five levels of difficulty which become progressively harder, so you can start with the (relatively) easy ones and build up to the truly expert level tests. There is even a hint section to help you on your way. Includes: - Anagrams - Logic puzzles - Homonym tests - Number encryption The Turing Trust was set up in 2009 by Alan Turing's closest family and is proud to be able to commemorate his remarkable contribution to the early years of computing and to contribute to the future of computer science by supporting people in rural African communities to become computer literate. The foreword to the book is written Sir Dermot Turing, Alan Turing's nephew and a trustee of The Turing Trust.
