Quantum Computing from Colossus to Qubits: The History, Theory, and Application of a Revolutionary Science Gribbin John
The quantum computer is no longer the stuff of science fiction. The birth of quantum computers - which, like Schrdinger's famous dead and alive cat, rely on entities like electrons, photons, or atoms existing in two states at the same time - is set to turn the computing world on its head. Pioneering physicists are on the brink of unlocking a new quantum universe which provides a better representation of reality than our everyday experiences and common sense ever could.
Looking back to Alan Turing's work on the Enigma machine and the first electronic computer, Gribbin explains how quantum theory developed to make quantum computers work in practice as well as in principle. In his fascinating study of this cutting-edge technology, and featuring a new introduction, John Gribbin explores the nature of quantum reality, arguing for a universe of many parallel worlds where everything is real.
