Abstract
Some of the fundamentals of quantum information science are described, including the concepts of quantum resources, quantum states and mixedness of states. The explanations are detailed and include a combination of basic facts with fully worked examples, and some more advanced topics. The principles of quantum information are illustrated with chemical examples drawn from singlet fission, photophysics of radicals, molecular excitons, electron transfer and so on. Suggestions for prospects and challenges for the field are discussed.
