Geniuses at War

Bletchley Park, Colossus, and the Dawn of the Digital Age

David A Price

The success of the Normandy invasion relied on the Allies breaking the codes produced by an encryption machine far more sophisticated than Enigma. This volume reveals how a team of engineers and mathematician Max Newman created the Colossus computer, capable of decoding messages almost instantly. American-cut pages. Off-mint and felt-tip mark on lower trimmed edge.
