Alan Turing: The Enigma by Andrew Hodges
2.0
One of the most disappointing books I think I've ever read.
Its not that the person of Turing is uninteresting or his story anything other than fascinating it's just that Hodges telling of the story is mind numbingly overcomplicated and borders of Hagiography.
This book so needed a better editor, one strong enough to stop Hodges tendency to flights of fancy and help him simplify the text.
