A Madman Dreams of Turing Machines-Fast Shipping

Description

Kurt Gödel’s Incompleteness Theorems sent shivers through Vienna’s intellectual circlesand directly challenged Ludwig Wittgenstein’s dominant philosophy. Alan Turing’smathematical genius helped him break the Nazi Enigma Code during WWII. Though theynever met, their lives strangely mirrored one another—both were brilliant, and bothmet with tragic ends. Here, a mysterious narrator intertwines these parallel livesinto a double helix of genius and anguish, wonderfully capturing not only two radiant,fragile minds but also the zeitgeist of the era.
