Editorial Reviews: Product Description The multidisciplinary field of quantum computing strives to exploit some of the uncanny aspects of quantum mechanics to expand our computational horizons. Quantum Computing for Computer Scientists takes readers on a tour of this fascinating area of cutting-edge research. Written in an accessible yet rigorous fashion, this book employs ideas and techniques familiar to every student of computer science. The reader is not expected to have any advanced mathematics or physics background. After presenting the necessary prerequisites, the material is organized to look at different aspects of quantum computing from the specific standpoint of computer science. There are chapters on computer architecture, algorithms, programming languages, theoretical computer science, cryptography, information theory, and hardware. The text has step-by-step examples, more than two hundred exercises with solutions, and programming drills that bring the ideas of quantum computing alive for today's computer science students and researchers.

Customer Reviews: This is amazing introductory book! October 18, 2008 4 out of 4 found this review helpful I am studying quantum computing by myself. Before this book, I studied this field with other school's class website. Even though the slide and on-line documents I obtained is great, it was hard to understand by just reading! This book is totally different from other books. It focued on people who are weak to mathematics and have little knowledge of quantum computing. Even some chapters are still hard (because of the nature of this field), most chapters are so well written that you can read lying on the couch and feel like you read some kind of story. Since I have been in the technical field for a while,(I am a CS PhD student studying Data Mining and Machine Learning), this book is one of very rarely well written books containing sufficient depth but keeping simplicity. For anyone who wish to start to study Quantum Computing WITHOUT much pain, this is THE book.
