QUANTUM COMPUTING: FROM BIT TO QBIT for Everyone - Quantum Field Theory and Possible Applications
What are quantum computers? Why were they made? Will they soon become common objects? These are important questions, with complex answers that we will try to reveal with simple words and concepts.
WHAT CAN A QUANTUM COMPUTER DO?
If we have a sequence of thirty 0s and 1s, it has about one billion of possible values. However, a classical computer can only be in one of these one billion states at the same time. A quantum computer can be in a quantum combination of all of those states, called superposition.
QUANTUM FIELD THEORY
“If you really understood quantum field theory in a proper mathematical way, this would give us answers to many open physics problems, perhaps even including the quantization of gravity”. Quantum field theory marries the ideas of other quantum theories to depict all particles as “excitations” that arise in underlying fields.
FROM QUANTUM COMPUTING TO QUANTUM INTERNET
In this guide discover the principles and promises behind these developments and how they will impact our future. What you'll

Better Passwords and Weather Predictions
This book should have been about 20 pages. It reminds me of an absent-minded professor who cannot remember what he just talked about. A subject will be presented, thoroughly coverd and ten pages later the same subject is presented AGAIN with little to no new information. There is good information about some of the people in earlier computer thought and design, but just as you think you get to the explanation regarding Quantum Computing you hear, 'its hard to define how it works or, is not completely understood, or is in its early development.' There are large companies spending millions of dollars and if we ever get to a stable cubit it sounds like we can get better passwords and predict the weather better.

The books doesn't really explain quantum computing but presents all the facts around QC.
It is a decent introduction to the subject, but I think you can skip it and get more useful books.
In any case, what is written is correct and gives an idea of the fuzz around it, for this my rating is not totally negative.

A decent introduction to QC considering that it's free, though it could have been written in 30 pages.
