{"product_id":"turing-tal-macneil-9781792912894","title":"Turing: An Anthology","description":"Alan Turing (1912-1954) was a gay mathematician whose cryptography efforts in the Second World War saved countless lives. His idea of a \"universal machine\" also became the first modern digital computer. In this surreal novella, Turing finds himself in a modern hospital, mysteriously revived, surrounded by unfamiliar technology. With a sceptical social worker and the friendship of a young trans woman and her brother, he struggles to make sense of an irrational universe. Other pieces in the collection include a mysterious proposal by the Archangel Uriel to a depressed mathematician, a retelling of the Epic of Gilgamesh from the perspective of the ark-builder Utnapishtim, and a remixed academic text becomes a meditation on the cosmos.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Tal MacNeil,Tom Caldwell\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1792912897\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781792912894\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/30\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 114\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.39lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.27d","brand":"Tal MacNeil","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":49165638893823,"sku":"9781792912894","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/turing-tal-macneil-9781792912894","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
