Infantile. Not a single chart to present the concept. I would value one chart more than the sentences like „imagine” or stories about the forest and the land. Collecting a bunch of bullegpoints does not make a book. It is rather a compendium of quantum-related terms than a reliable introduction to the topic.

Tries hard to be simple, but it’s still quantum

The book does a decent job of trying to break down impossible-sounding ideas like superposition, entanglement, and quantum gates without just throwing a bunch of equations at you. It gives you a full tour, the basics of quantum mechanics, the hardware, the software, and all the future stuff it will be used for, like AI and cryptography. The "Quantum Toolkit" it includes, which points to simulators and other resources, is also a really solid, practical touch.

The book tries so hard to be simple that it ends up feeling vague. By avoiding all the math, the explanations for how things actually work are just a string of big words. It's like it explains what a qubit is, but not why it behaves the way it does. It's definitely not as "simple" as it claims, and I can see why some readers get frustrated. It's also written by an "Academy", and at times it feels a little dry, not like you're being guided by a single, passionate teacher.

For a future edition, I have a weird suggestion: they should add some of the math back in. They shouldn't put it in the main chapters, but maybe create an appendix for "The Math, If You're Curious". It feels like they overcorrected so much that they left out the core logic. Sometimes, a simple equation is actually easier to understand than a 10-page metaphor.

Overall, it's a good overview if you know absolutely nothing. But it's not the "aha!" moment I was hoping for, and it probably won't make you the "go-to quantum whiz" it promises.

Quantum Computing Explained: Recommended to Beginners and Advanced Learners

"QUANTUM COMPUTING EXPLAINED FOR BEGINNERS: The Science, Technology, and Impact" contains extensive information!

It felt like a university textbook and was more than 300 pages long. It provided a lot in terms of theoretical information. However, it also offered numerous practical ideas and applications.

I was pleasantly surprised by the broadness of ideas in the book. The book is a must-read for intelligent readers interested in quantum computing!

The book provides a Quantum Toolkit. It gives the reader helpful websites, courses, and tips to build AI and quantum computing skills in their professional career.

Highly relevant are ethics and social implications, and the book excellently covers them. The book read my mind because its words resonated deeply: "Is it ethical to introduce quantum-driven solutions to the public without ensuring a basic level of understanding and informed consent?"

Broad and sufficiently deep coverage of quantum computing for the beginner

The author carefully steps the reader through a broad yet a couple layers of information about quantum computing terms, properties, applications, and more to the point where a reader might decide to pursue a quantum career or step away.

Good book. However, I found it very repetitive on some parts. I guess for those who have some understanding of the topics behind this book, it is easy to follow.
For beginners this is definitely a good start on quantum computing and pick up the initial concepts behind it.
P.s.: I listened to the audiobook version.

Superficial and repetitive.

The topic is interesting, but the author seems to lack an in depth understanding.

The descriptions are superficial, hyperbolic, lacking in depth of detail, and rely upon weak analogies (subterranean caves, submarines, flight) that don’t clarify anything. The text is annoyingly repetitive.

The writing is repetitive and unorganized, and the analogies are shallow at best. Regardless, this is (one of) the most accessible books you’re likely to find on the arcane world of quantum computing! - 3/5.

A long verbose book to teach a few basic concepts

The author tried to make this readable and humourous but most of it feels repetitive and falls flat. Not 1 star because there are a few useful basic concepts in the book.

A good read

This was a good read, I now have a better comprehension of what quantum computing is about. However, I am going to read this book again.
