520    A gripping story of mathematics, computers, cryptography, 
       and homosexual persecution. Hodges tells how Turing's 
       revolutionary idea of 1936 - the concept of a universal 
       machine - laid the foundation for the modern computer. 
       Turing brought the idea to practical realization in 1945 
       with his electronic design. This work was directly related
       to Turing's leading role in breaking the German Enigma 
       ciphers during World War II, a scientific triumph that was
       critical to Allied victory in the Atlantic. Despite his 
       wartime service, Turing was eventually arrested, stripped 
       of his security clearance, and forced to undergo a 
       humiliating treatment program - all for trying to live 
       honestly in a society that defined homosexuality as a 
       crime
