Abstract In this chapter, we provide an overview of the entire book. After explaining the basic concepts of macroscopic quantum phenomena, superfluidity and quantized vortices, and quantum turbulence, we introduce the quantum fluids that form the stage of this book: superfluid 4He, superfluid 3He, and atomic Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs). Next, we present the theoretical models used in the study of quantum fluid dynamics and quantum turbulence, such as the Gross-Pitaevskii model, the Vortex filament model, and the Hall-Vinen-Bekharevich-Khalatnikov (HVBK) model. Finally, we provide a brief overview of the contents from Chapter 2 to Chapter 5.
