Second expanded edition. - Alan Turing s own copy of Courant (Richard) and David Hilbert, Vol. 1 [Die Grundlehren der Mathematischen Wissenschaften in Einzeldarstellungen, Band XII], acquired by him in October 1933 and signed on the front free endpaper. This copy of text played an important role in the formation of his ideas on mathematics. The book was purchased and read during Turing's time as an undergraduate at King's College, Cambridge from 1931. Provenance: Alan Turing (1912-1954); Robin Gandy (1919-1995), Turing's friend and one of his executors; bequeathed to Wolfson College. A Fellow of Wolfson from 1970 until his death in 1995, Gandy generously left his entire estate to the College, including these books once owned by Alan Turing, with the wish that his legacy be used to benefit the College and its students.
