Could you point out a comprehensive reference book (or more than one, if it is the case) on *Quantum Probability* that introduces the subject and then gradually builds up to the edges of contemporary research?



Reference request: a guide through quantum probability
If you are interested in quantum probability from mathematical perspective, these two books will be helpful:


<http://www.springer.com/mathematics/probability/book/978-3-540-60270-5> (Quantum Probability for Probabilists, by P.A. Meyer).


[http://www.amazon.com/Quantum-Probability-Mathematical-Statistics/dp/0123053404](http://rads.stackoverflow.com/amzn/click/0123053404) (Quantum Probability (Probability and Mathematical Statistics), by S.P. Gudder).


This textbook is very good, but the focus is on quantum information and quantum computing:


[http://www.amazon.com/Quantum-Computation-Information-Anniversary-Edition/dp/1107002176](http://rads.stackoverflow.com/amzn/click/1107002176) (Quantum Computation and Quantum Information, by Michael A. Nielsen and Isaac L. Chuang).
