This first volume of the ACM Press Anthology Series collects 22 essays, representing the first 20 years (1966-1985) of the ACM Tbring Award Lectures. The Turing Award is presented annually "to an individual selected for contributions of a technical nature to the computing community" that are judged to be of lasting and major importance to the field of computing science. The award commemorates Alan M. Touring, an English mathematician whose work "captured the imagination and mobilized the thoughts of a generation of scientists," to quote Alan J. Perlis, the first award recipient.
