Alan Turing: Real Lives
Autor Jim Eldridgeen Limba Engleză Paperback – 7 noi 2013
During World War II, Turing worked for the Government Code and Cypher School at Bletchley Park, Britain's codebreaking centre, where he was responsible for breaking German naval codes, including the supposedly unbreakable Enigma code, and helping the Atlantic convoys avoid German U-boat attacks. This work probably shortened World War II by up to four years, saving millions of lives.
This is the story of the amazing life and work of a British hero and one of the greatest thinkers of the 20th century.

Recenzii
Interesting and effective biography of the famous mathematician...accessible but with an occasionally challenging vocabulary, it will appeal to a wide range of kids. It might be short but this book is very well-written...and I can imagine will be very useful for use by teachers in cross-curricular activities. This book - and all the others in the Real Lives series - comes recommended by us.
I very much like this series. It gives just enough information to satisfy the young reader. The narrative form makes history accessible and the range of people covered is interesting as well as relevant to KS3 history. Alan Turing - a remarkable man and excellent to see him the subject of a biography for children.
...written with admirable, accessible clarity of expression, and a genuine sense of striving to understand the various factors that influenced the young Turing's development into the scientist who cracked Enigma.
