From bits to qubits and into physics

Human intelligence, which handles information, has expanded from language to numbers, and from formulas to physics.
When Shannon established 'information theory' in the mid-20th century and reduced all signals in the world to bits of 0 and 1, he drew a new coordinate system for human knowledge.
But quantum mechanics shook the system again.
Quantum Information narratively explores this very turning point.
Qubits, which can exist in a state between 0 and 1, and entanglement, where changes in one immediately affect the other even when they are far apart, have fundamentally shaken the existing concept of information.
This book shows the process by which information is redefined in the language of physics, starting from Shannon's information theory, and continuing through Einstein, Podolsky, and Rosen's problems, Bell's inequality, Aspe's entanglement experiment, and Zeilinger's quantum teleportation.
The journey from 'bits to qubits' is a philosophical event that changes the very way humans perceive reality.

People who drew the quantum world with mathematics

All the physicists who laid the foundations of quantum information tried to express the uncertainty of the world in mathematical language.
After Heisenberg proposed the uncertainty principle and Bohr explained the duality of particles with the concept of complementarity, Bell quantified the contradictions in the theory and presented a clear framework for experimental verification called 'Bell's inequality'.
"Quantum Information" goes beyond simply explaining these historical moments, and includes the EPR paper, Bell's original text, Aspe's experimental report, and Zeilinger's quantum teleportation paper.
Readers will experience 'how scientific thinking leads to verification' by directly reading the formulas, data, and schematics of experimental devices.
Superposition and entanglement of qubits, gate operations, and the no-cloning theorem are concepts born at the intersection of mathematical logic and physical reality.
"Quantum Information" unravels these concepts in everyday conversation, shatters the prejudice that "quantum mechanics is difficult" and demonstrates how beautifully the logic of physics is structured.


Scientists who experimentally proved entanglement

Einstein doubted the reality of quantum entanglement, calling it "spooky action at a distance," but his doubts were eventually resolved experimentally.
In the 1970s and 1980s, Alain Aspe and John Clauser proved that quantum entanglement actually exists through elaborate experiments that verified Bell's inequality.
Afterwards, Zeilinger's research team used entanglement to implement quantum teleportation, which 'transfers' the state of one particle to another particle that is far away.
"Quantum Information" faithfully restores the formulas and procedures of this experiment, allowing readers to follow step-by-step how quantum teleportation is possible.
Entanglement and teleportation are no longer philosophical symbols, but the practical foundation of quantum computers, quantum cryptography, and quantum communication.
The 2022 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to these three scientists—Klausser, Aspe, and Zeilinger—for their work, which is considered a decisive experiment that opened the door to the quantum information era.
『Quantum Information』 reproduces the original text as is, allowing readers to witness firsthand the moment that became a turning point in the history of science.

A liberal arts book that connects reason and technology

Quantum Information is a book that bridges the gap between technology and philosophy, experiment and reason.
Professor Jeong Wan-sang's unique question-and-answer format piques readers' curiosity, and through the questions posed by the "physics group," difficult concepts such as entanglement, teleportation, and quantum gates are transformed into familiar language.
The book shows that quantum information is transforming the technology, ethics, and even human perception of modern society.
Quantum computers are changing the paradigm of computation, quantum cryptography is rewriting the concept of security, and entangled communication suggests that it can extend to the farthest reaches of the universe.
"Quantum Information" is a guide not only for young people and aspiring science and engineering students, but also for all readers seeking to understand the future of information and the philosophical foundations of science.
The series' identity as "Science through Direct Reading of Papers" shines through in this volume as well.
The author's passion for broadening our horizons through science, coupled with the friendly commentary that encourages fearless exploration of complex concepts, solidifies this book as a "universal textbook on thinking science."
Dr. Park Moon-ho, a brain science expert, appeared on the YouTube channel 'Education Reporter TV' and mentioned the 'Learn Science with Original Papers by Nobel Prize Winners' series by Seonglimwon Books as a recommended book that will help develop talent in science and engineering. He introduced it as a book that explains Nobel Prize-winning papers in physics in detail so that even high school students can understand them.
He praised the series, saying that it is truly worthy of applause, saying that he hopes that it will make scientific knowledge easily accessible to everyone and spread throughout Korea.
