Foundations of Qubits
A precise beginner path from classical bits to the single-qubit model used by every later topic.
Current release
Alice In Quantumland
A story-led introduction to quantum computing, built around precise explanations, mathematical reasoning, and carefully designed exercises.
Narrative scenes provide intuition, but every analogy is eventually connected to the formal quantum model.
