The required knowledge is only elementary calculus and linear algebra. This way the book can be understood by undergraduate students. In order to study quantum information, one usually has to study the foundation of quantum theory. This book describes it from more an operational viewpoint which is suitable for quantum information while traditional textbooks of quantum theory lack.}, url = {http://library.usi.edu/record/771441}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-662-43502-1}, }
