Format: Hardcover Verified Purchase
I came at this book at as a theoretical computer science graduate student, and I found it wholly lacking. The authors put you in a physics mindset and try hard to keep you there. This might be good if you care about "physical realizations" as the subtitle indicates, but they don't explain many of the key algorithms clearly (especially Grover's).

When I picked up Nielsen and Chuang, where they don't shy away from P, NP, and BPP, I felt right at home (despite the minor errors they make in discussing complexity theory). If you're already somewhat versed in computer science and looking to make the transition to quantum computing, Nielsen and Chuang is your book.

Format: Hardcover
This is a fantastic book that really explains things thoroughly and rigorously. However, the book lacks an introduction to a non math/science background.
