Claude Shannon had quite the mind.

"A Mind at Play" is a good book on Shannon's life and "The Bit Player" is a good partner movie to watch :)

"A Mathematical Theory of Communication" and "A Symbolic Analysis of Relay and Switching Circuits" paved the way for much of modern computing.

A Mind At Play was fantastic. :)
