The online PDF version of the 8th edition of the book “Understanding Quantum Technologies” is available since September 29th.
As I do every year, I continue to update the book, first to publish it on arXiv which I did late October. On top of many small updates, I added a small section on the “Making of” of this version of the book which is the first I did in LaTeX.

I published the 2024 and 7th edition of the book “Understanding Quantum Technologies” back in September 26th. Since then, I have continuously updated and refined it, embedding the continuous flow of scientific and industry news in the quantum space, and also corrected some errors found by various readers. I also identified a couple new quantum vendors. The key updates are listed at the end of the document in a “log” I am maintaining since the creation of this book in 2018.
As is the case since 2021, I waited a little to publish this refined version dubbed “7.1” on both arXiv and Amazon. So here it is!
