Essential books on Quantum Computing for 2025

10/01/25·2 min read

Here's my selection of the most useful books when learning Quantum Computing. Some of these have popped up in the Quantum Computing Book Club that we started in 2024, and others are something of a standard in collections like this. This is my personal selection though, so there's a few specific curve balls here based on my own perspective coming across from a software engineering side of things.

The bias here is towards those of us working in technology industry who want to get up to speed on doing useful things, so the wider context and history is kept to a bare minimum. And I have intentionally left out any book that I think isn't useful for getting a serious understanding of the subject matter. So this is a curation that I stand by (but might revise from time to time).
