Overview
--------
In 1936, Alonzo Church?s foundational 'An unsolvable problem of  
elementary
number theory' introduced the Lambda-calculus which, with Turing  
machines,
now underpins contemporary theoretical and practical Computer Science.  
To
celebrate the 75th anniversary of the publication of this seminal work,
papers are invited for presentation at a one day International Workshop,
to be held in St Andrews on 15th June 2012, immediately following the
International Symposium on Trends in Functional Programming (TFP).

Topics
------
Church's life & work
Origins/history
Computability
Programming language design & implementation
Logic, proof & reasoning
