Giving an accurate but rather short introduction to the 2 main quantum algorithms: quantum fourier transform, grover's search. I would recommend the book to advanced undergraduate readers or beginning graduates with any scientific background. The only required background would be some decent linear algebra and an average standard-university math knowledge. There is one thing which I think every reader should know before buying the book though. The actual part on quantum algorithms is about 60 pages. The first 40 pages are on computation (interesting for non-CS people) and the last 80 pages are an overview of quantum mechanics and mathematics. (interesting for non-physics people) Review: Find out about it! - There is, by now, some variety of textbooks to choose from, covering quantum computing and quantum information;-- the output of research papers has been explosive since Peter Shor discovered his algorithm. Two books stand out as being especially ready for use in the class room, the one by Nielsen-Chuang, and the present one by Hirvensalo. The first covers more ground in physics (theory), and has a bigger selection of exercises;-- the second stresses the math and the CS side of the subject;-- it has more worked examples. It can be readily used in the classroom in a one semester course, and it will go over well with students in both math and in CS. The level is even, and a beginning student can progress in steps, following the text, and doing the exercises. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00YDJHK70 | | Customer reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (2) | ## Images ![Quantum Computing (Natural Computing Series) by Hirvensalo, Mika (2004) Hardcover - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41vSHlq4p1L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent introduction *by J***L on 2 February 2004* I found the book of reasonable quality.
