Quantum Computing and Quantum Information is a textbook by Michael Nielsen and Isaac Chuang. It has been through ten editions.
Peter Shor called the text "an excellent book". Lou Grover called it "the bible of the quantum information field." Scott Aaronson said about it, "'Mike and Ike' as it's affectionately called, remains the quantum computing textbook to which all others are compared."[1] David DiVincenzo said, "More than any of the previous attempts, this book has identified the essential foundations of quantum information theory with a clarity that has even, in a few cases, permitted the authors to obtain some original results and point toward new research directions."[2] A review in the Foundations of Physics says, "Among the handful of books that have been written on this new subject, the present volume is the most complete and comprehensive."[3]
