Nazi Secrets Revealed Review

This is mainly a review about one of the discs in the 3 disc set--the one about the code breaking unit in an English manor house near Oxford. I should mention that I am an expert in cryptography and teach a two semester course at UC and devote two and a half classes to showing this incredible disc. (Two hours = 120 minutes, which is two 50 minute classes plus 20 minutes out of 50 minutes of a third class.) I used to show the VHS tape, but the tape players were removed from the classrooms, so I converted my VHS copy to a DVD. Then one of the students found this DVD set on the Amazon.ca (Canada) website.

The disc may be too technical for some tastes, but my students love it and consider it to be the high point of the course. The other two discs are less technical and tell interesting stories also.

It is a NOVA, so you can expect that a real effort was made to make it accessible. Don't watch all two hours at once! When the program was made, many of the geniuses on the project were still alive and gave interviews. Many are famous now.

Some of the high points:

*They invented the electronic computer and used it to crack the Lorenz Cipher Machine, enabling the Normandy invasion, thereby shortening WW II by two years.

*The extraordinary genius Alan Turing invented Artificial Intelligence to help determine the plug board settings on the Enigma coding machine. He was no longer alive to give an interview, but artificial intelligence great Donald Michie gave one.

*Turing developed the same theory of information that Claude Shannon did in the similar US project, which is still shrouded in secrecy. Both men developed it for code cracking of course.
