Reviews"Manenti and Motta provide a tour-de-force of quantum information science. This is the first textbook that I have seen that comprehensively begins with mathematics, moves on to quantum physics, and via quantum algorithms ends up in the discussion of hardware implementations. With detailed explanations, modern references, and further reading tips this book is poised to become one of the classics in every quantum information scientist's bookshelf" -- Alan Aspuru-Guzik, Professor of Chemistry and Computer Science, University of Toronto and Scientific Advisor, Zapata Computing"Manenti and Motta have navigated the vast field of quantum information science to create a well-rounded and accessible textbook. Though the subject is too broad to be covered in its entirety, the authors have carefully selected key topics and provide clear explanations including advanced topics on quantum simulation and superconducting devices. This is an excellent resource for anyone starting a career in this field." -- Jay Gambetta, IBM Fellow and Vice President of IBM Quantum"The text 'Quantum Information Science' is an admirable attempt by these two authors, a theorist and an experimentalist in the quantum information field, to guide readers from the very basics to the frontiers of research. The unusual breadth of topics ensures that every reader will learn something new and the inclusion of a large number of problems with detailed solutions means that this work is suitable for instructional use in graduate classes. A much needed and unique tour-de-force." -- Garnet Kin-Lic Chan, Bren Professor of Chemistry, Caltech"Manenti and Motta have made a great effort to introduce the basic concepts in the rapidly growing field of quantum information science and technology. With numerous exercises and references, this book will not only be a valuable resource for current students, but also serve as a foundation for the next generation of quantum engineers." -- Yasunobu Nakamura, Professor of Quantum Information Physics, University of Tokyo, "Manenti and Motta provide a tour-de-force of quantum information science.
