[Philip Bergstresser]

The cluster states section is the part worth buying the book for. I also became enlightened by the EPR experiment (Einstein,podolski,Rosen) and want to read the secondary references included. In addition , coverage of cluster states is good introduction to quantum computing. This is a superficial review of a dense work, but it is a serious starting point for any mind that wished to delve.
