A wonderful book that covers the history of the creation of the computer and the modern age we live in. The title is a bit off as the main character seems to be Von Neumann who acted as an engineer to Turing's hypothetical machine.

I recommend the book to anyone who has a background in computers, math, science, physics, biology, or some of the more statistical leaning social sciences.
