Feynman gave at Caltech from 1983 to 1986 was not on physics but on computer science. The first edition of the Feynman Lectures on Computation published in 1996 and provided an overview of standard and not-so-standard topics in computer science given in Feynman's inimitable style. Although now over 20 years old, most of the material is still relevant and interesting, and Feynman's unique philosophy of learning and discovery shines through. For this new edition, Tony Hey has updated the lectures with an invited chapter from Professor John Preskill on "Quantum Computing 40 Years Later." This contribution captures the progress made towards building a quantum computer since Feynman's original suggestions in 1981. The last 25 years have also seen the "Moore's Law" roadmap for the IT industry coming to an end. To reflect this transition, John Sh
