Bøker av N. David (Cornell University Mermin

Quantum physics has some spectacular applications in computer science, and this book is a concise introduction to quantum computation. It develops the basic elements of computational theory without assuming any background in physics, and so is ideal for computer scientists who know nothing about quantum theory.

Boojums All the Way Through is a collection of essays which deals in a variety of ways with the problem of communicating modern physics to both physicists and non-physicists. The author, Professor David Mermin, finds startlingly simple ways of presenting ideas that are traditionally regarded as complex.
