"The authors are renowned experts in the field, and I find their presentation masterful..the authors present a thorough and well-structured treatise on the mathematical language of quantum theory. I can recommend it to any graduate student with some experience in quantum computing who is interested in the foundations of the subject."
Thomas Peters in Contemporary Physics
"In summary, this is a fine book that will serve well theoretical quantum physicists wishing to acquire essential mathematical tools and deepen their insight into the mathematical foundations of quantum theory;"
Paul Busch, Mathematical Reviews
