Description

On Computable Numbers, with an Application to the Entscheidungsproblem”, Alan Turing’s paper of 1937, contained his thesis that every effective computation can be programmed on such an automation as that called Turing machine. Furthermore it proved the unsolvability of the halting problem and of the decision problem for first order logic, and it presented the invention of the universal Turing machine. It is that publication that will presumably be acknowledged as marking sub specie aeternitatis the beginning of the computer age”. This volume recognizes the still continuing influence of the Turing machine concept by collecting contributions from international specialists in logic, computability, mathematics, biology, physics, linguistics, and cognitive science, thus signalling the exceptionally wide scope of that concept.

User’s Reviews

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐This is a beautiful collection of articles which talk of, and in terms of, the original works of the giants that led the beginning of what is now termed computational logic. As a bonus, some of the articles are written by these giants. Each is clear, and not too philosophical, so that even those with little background can be entertained and amassed at the thoughts presented – many of which are in practice today in contemporary search engines on the net.I especially like the good print and paper that was used in the production of the book – like its contents, reminiscent of days long gone by – perhaps that’s the best point of obtaining a copy. There will never again be such passages written. It is worth the price, and having bought a used one in very good condition for less than $35, I feel lucky.
