Description
The Turing Trust
A fiendish collection of 240 code-breaking puzzles, published in association with The Turing Trust. Celebrating the love of puzzles shared by codebreaker and father of modern computing Alan Turing (1912-54), you’ll be tested with five puzzle sections, each increasing in difficulty. You must first tease out – from the title and puzzle introduction – what the rules are for each puzzle and to then try to unravel it. Set by over ten puzzle-makers, specialising in devious and cryptic challenges, the book also includes a section of at least one hint for each puzzle. Turn to this if you get stuck for a hint on how to proceed. With a compelling and entertaining variety of puzzles you’ll improve your puzzle solving and gain an insight into the inspirational minds of Bletchley Park’s codebreakers.

Good service but can't really comment on the book itself as it's a present for someone else who hasn't yet seen it or commented.
