Abstract :
The term quantum logic is usefully ambiguous. In quantum computation, quantum logic describes the behaviour of quantum gates. In quantum physics generally, quantum logic stands for the non-Boolean logic describing the behaviour of quantum systems. The author addresses the question of the how these two senses of quantum logic-the gate sense, and the system sense-relate to one another
