The collected works of Turing, including a substantial amount of
unpublished material, will comprise four volumes: Mechanical
Intelligence, Pure Mathematics, Morphogenesis and Mathematical
Logic. Alan Mathison Turing (1912-1954) was a brilliant man who
made major contributions in several areas of science. Today his
name is mentioned frequently in philosophical discussions about the
nature of Artificial Intelligence. Actually, he was a pioneer
researcher in computer architecture and software engineering; his
work in pure mathematics and mathematical logic extended
considerably further and his last work, on morphogenesis in plants,
is also acknowledged as being of the greatest originality and of
permanent importance. He was one of the leading figures in
Twentieth-century science, a fact which would have been known to
the general public sooner but for the British Official Secrets Act,
which prevented discussion of his wartime work. What is maybe
surprising about these papers is that although they were written
decades ago, they address major issues which concern researchers
today.
