Review
"The presentation is lucid and well-planned. The detailed explanations of classical concepts such as data compression and encoding help put the quantum analogues in context. There are copious worked examples, and all exercises have full solutions given at the rear of the book ... their treatment of more mainstream parts of quantum information is clear, concise and comprehensive. This book deserves a home on many a bookshelf."-- Australian Physics
"The second volume provides a great deal more depth on subjects vital to understanding quantum computers as a possible technology, as well as covering some side topics that are not so directly relevant, but that may be interesting for a sophisticated reader. This new volume also updates and greatly expands the discussion of current experimental techniques ... the two volumes of this text are also worthy entries, and could serve admirably in a graduate-level introductory course particularly one with a significant experimental component, or one that also touches on quantum chaos. For professionals in quantum mechanics from certain backgrounds, this book may also work as an introduction to quantum computing. Certainly the authors are to be commended for producing such a well-written and accessible textbook."-- Mathematical Reviews
"The authors have not only considered the students and young researchers in their field, but, without explicitly saying so and with great tact, they have also thought of professors in other fields, who desperately try to keep up-to-date and to understand the formidably concise and technical articles which appear in Physical Review Letters, Nature and Science ... These two volumes, which I recommend to all colleagues in the aforementioned situation, take us back to the solid ground of sound quantum mechanics." --II Nuovo Saggiatore
The presentation is lucid and well-planned. The detailed explanations of classical concepts such as data compression and encoding help put the quantum analogues in context. There are copious worked examples, and all exercises have full solutions given at the rear of the book ... their treatment of more mainstream parts of quantum information is clear, concise and comprehensive. This book deserves a home on many a bookshelf. --Australian Physics
Like the first one this second volume is written in an outstanding clear and instructive manner and covers the main fields of quantum information processing ... this excellent textbook guides the reader on a straight way to understand and work on quantum computing and information. It can be best recommended to students as well as to lecturers. --Zentralblatt MATH

To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.

We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods.
