First edition, one of 500 copies only. This biography of the great computer science pioneer sought to establish Turing's credentials without reference to his then still-classified war work. "Written from a mother's viewpoint, Sara provides a unique insight into the early years of Turing, with candid descriptions, anecdotal accou…nts of Turing's eccentricity and genius, and insights into his science" (Cooper). Sara (1881-1976) maintained that her son's death was an accident and the result of careless handling of chemicals when preparing "non-poisonous weed-killer and sink-cleaner" (p. 115) rather than the inquest's verdict of suicide. Barry Cooper, "De-coding the Turing family", The Guardian, 17 April 2012, accessible online. Octavo. Photographic portrait frontispiece, 6 plates. Original pale green boards, spine and front cover lettered in green. With dust jacket. Pencil ownership signature dated 1959 to front free endpaper. Spine ends and corners gently bumped, covers bright, a touch of foxing to frontispiece else internally clean; jacket unclipped, extremities a little creased and nicked, spine toned, rear panel lightly soiled: a near-fine copy in very good jacket.
