• The Physics of Quantum Mechanics (James Binney, et al.)

  This book aims to give students a good understanding of how Quantum Mechanics describes the material world. It shows that the theory follows naturally from the use of probability amplitudes to derive probabilities.

• Quantum Mechanics Made Simple (Weng Cho Chew)

  The book at hand is meant to help you precisely with that: Understanding the basics of Quantum Mechanics, so that you can start asking the big questions and, with the help of modern physicists, find the answers to these questions as well.

• The Cellular Automaton Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics

  This book presents the deterministic view of quantum mechanics developed by Nobel Laureate Gerard 't Hooft. The author gives examples of models that are classical in essence, but can be analysed by the use of quantum techniques.

• Mathematical Methods in Quantum Mechanics (Gerald Teschl)

  This book is a brief, but self-contained, introduction to the mathematical methods of quantum mechanics, with a view towards applications to Schrodinger operators. Very clear and detailed way and supplements it by numerous exercises.

• Mathematical Foundations of Quantum Theory

  This is a collection of lecture notes, all shared a common interest in answering quantum issues. The goal is to give a mathematically clear and self-containing explanation of the main concepts of the modern language of quantum theory.

• Introduction to Classical and Quantum Computing (Tom Wong)

  This book is for students who want to learn quantum computing beyond a conceptual level, but who lack advanced training in mathematics. The only prerequisite is trigonometry, and mathematics beyond that will be covered.

• Learn Quantum Computation using Qiskit

  This is a free digital textbook that will teach you the concepts of quantum computing while you learn to use the Qiskit SDK. It is built on a jupyter notebook framework that allows for easy reading, but it also allows readers to edit and run the code right in the textbook.

• Quantum Computing for the Quantum Curious

  This open access book makes quantum computing more accessible than ever before. It bridges the gap between popular science articles and advanced textbooks by making key ideas accessible with just high school physics as a prerequisite.

• Quantum Computing: Progress and Prospects

  Provides an introduction to the Quantum Computing, including the unique characteristics and constraints of the technology, and assesses the feasibility and implications of creating a functional quantum computer capable of addressing real-world problems.

• Quantum Computing Since Democritus (Scott Aaronson)

  This book takes readers on a tour through some of the deepest ideas of maths, computer science and physics. Full of insights, arguments and philosophical perspectives, the book covers an amazing array of topics.

• The Functional Analysis of Quantum Information Theory

  This book provides readers with a concise introduction to current studies on operator-algebras and their generalizations, operator spaces and operator systems, with a special focus on their application in Quantum Information Science.
