This book is a comprehensive survey of most of the theoretical
and experimental achievements in the field of quantum estimation of
states and operations. Albeit still quite young, this field has
already been recognized as a necessary tool for research in quantum
optics and quantum information, beyond being a fascinating subject
in its own right since it touches upon the conceptual foundations
of quantum mechanics. The book consists of twelve extensive
lectures that are essentially self-contained and modular, allowing
combination of various chapters as a basis for advanced courses and
seminars on theoretical or experimental aspects. The last two
chapters, for instance, form a self-contained exposition on quantum
discrimination problems. The book will benefit graduate students
and newcomers to the field as a high-level but accessible textbook,
lecturers in search for advanced course material and researchers
wishing to consult a modern and authoritative source of
reference.
