Recenzje

'This is a great book that fulfills a vital need: a unified, precise, and complete presentation of the most important topics in quantum information … Reading the book in detail (verifying the proofs all the while) gave me a solid, confident understanding of the techniques used by those in the field - an understanding that I am eager to apply in the future.' Stephen A. Fenner, SIGACT News
