Quantum Computation and Quantum Information: 10th Anniversary Edition

One of the best books out there for an introduction to quantum computing. Starts with the basics such than an undergraduate science student can get started with it easily, before diving into more complex topics.

I like how the workbook helps you in quantum computing and information.

Very Happy with the book. Box that it came in the side was partially ripped. Luckly the books and the 4 way USB connector was in tact. Terrible seeing that come through the door. I writing this because I wouldn't like it to happen to anyone else. I say its the Post! An Post Ireland, really don't care. Thrown in the porch! Im just wandering if something can be done about this. I know other people had the same experience. As for the books Delighted with them. Im so innterested in computers all that. 4 way USB charger adapter is working. Miracle contents didn't get damaged.

This is an excellent starter, and reference book on QC. I'm still working through it, and have to keep going back and forth to understand some of the maths, but is really helping ground my thoughts.

Excellent introduction to quantum computation. I am an economist and has no background in the field of physics, but with high school math you are able to follow the presentation and even work out some of the problems. Great buy!!

excellent all round - many thanks

I wondered why this only had 3.5 stars at the time I wrote this review. After checking I see this is only because of issues with the Kindle edition. I would always recommend physical textbooks in any case, there is good evidence that navigating around a physical book helps learning. The text itself is a fantastic. A very clear introduction to linear algebra, quantum information and quantum computation. Sadly I have lost my copy, one day I'll replace it.

My credentials as a self-learner are that I was in the first cohort of Open University students and completed a good First in mathematics. Even though I have not completed this book, it is clearly not for self-learners. This anniversary edition contains a multitude of errata (some quite worrying), the glossary of terms is sadly lacking and there are no solutions provided for the exercises. I find myself frequently having to search the Internet for clarifying material in order to move forward. Although highly rated by university departments, it demands easy access to the equivalent of a lecturer if smooth progress is to be made.

The book is very interesting and useful for everyone who means to deal with the quantum computing seriously. The book will provide you with necessary theoretical background to understand quantum computing and quantum algorithm. The first part is introduction to the quantum computing, quantum mechanics and theoretical computer science, the second part deals with basic of quantum circuits, quantum Fourier transformation and its application and Grover search algorithm. Last part is focused on theory of information, mainly the quantum one. The book is not light reading but it can serve as very useful guide in the world of quantum computing theory.

Ottimo referenza per il mondo del calcolo quantistico, o quantum computing. Forse non l'ideale per iniziare ma di sicuro da usare per quando si vuole approfondire la superficie

Un libro de referencia fundamental para interesados en el área. Se introduce todo lo necesario para seguir el contenido sin problemas. El único punto en contra (por ponerle alguno) es que los problemas no vienen resueltos.

Super libro, muy completo y de pasta dura.

量子コンピュータについて書かれた教科書で名著の一つ。 基本的なところから書かれているため線形代数について慣れていれば学部生でも十分追うことが可能だと思われる。 3PARTに分かれているが量子コンピュータについてのみ知りたい人はPart1とPart2を読めば十分。 Part3はいわゆる量子情報と言われる分野について(量子コンピュータの誤り訂正を目標としているが)扱うため、人によってはあまり必要のない場合もあると思われる。 ちなみに理論部分は20年たってなお色褪せていないが、物理的な実装系についての解説はここ数年の技術的発展によって不十分な部分であり、この本一冊だけでは手に余っているといえる。 もしかしたら量子アルゴリズム側の発展がShorとGroverから進んでいないというのが大きいのかもしれないが......（近年大きく発展した量子機械学習や量子化学計算についてもこの本では取り扱われていない）
