About this book

Quantum mechanics departs sharply from classical physics when it comes to measurement, since in the microscopic world a direct measurement of the classical kind is not possible. For that reason, the question of measurement has been the most persistently difficult part of the theory as it has developed.

This volume gathers chapters from an international group of invited authors, each setting out a different reading of what measurement means in quantum mechanics. Rather than settling the debate, the aim is to make the competing views clearer, so that readers can weigh them side by side.
