What’s next

The future is already here. It’s just not very evenly distributed. — William Gibson

In this book we only have a superficial acquitance of limited topics. Apart from hiding all hardware implementations, we also fully ignored many important topics.

• books
  • Quantum Computation and Quantum Information (2000) by Michael Nielsen and Isaac Chuang: This is a comprehensive textbook, often used in undergraduate and graduate quantum computing courses.
  • Quantum Computer Science (2007) by N. David Mermin (age 83 this year)
  • Quantum Computing since Democritus (2013) by Scott Aaronson: This book talks about many interesting topics. You can take a glimpse on Scott Aaronson’s website.
