Alister George Douglas Watson (2 May 1908 – 16 October 1982) was a mathematician who was identified by several writers as a key member of the Cambridge spy ring.

Born in Leigh-on-Sea, Essex, England, Watson attended Winchester School and studied mathematics at Kings College, Cambridge.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=Spartacus Educational )〕 He was elected a fellow in 1933 and published two papers during his fellowship, ''Mathematics and its foundations'', Mind, volume 47, pp. 440– 451 (1938) and ''Principal directions in a gravitational field''. Proceedings of the Edinburgh Mathematical Society (Series 2) 6.01 (1939): 12-16.
He joined the Communist Party of Great Britain whilst at Cambridge and also became a member and later secretary of the Cambridge Apostles. In the summer of 1937, he introduced Ludwig Wittgenstein to Alan Turing.〔Hodges, A. ''Alan Turing: The Enigma of Intelligence''. London: Unwin. 1985.〕 He was also well acquainted with John Maynard Keynes and other leading figures of the Cambridge academic life of the time.
Watson and Frank P. Ramsey assisted the economist Piero Sraffa with the mathematics for his book ''Production of commodities by Means of Commodities''.〔Heinz-Dieter Kurz, Neri Salvadori, "Sraffa and the Mathematicians: Frank Ramsey and Alister Watson", in Kurz and Salvadori (eds.) ''Classical economics and modern theory: studies in long-period analysis''. London: Routledge, 2003. pp. 187–217.〕
