Probabilities are  assigned to the possible values that these magnitudes may adopt. The  interpretation is thus concerned with physical properties rather than  with measurement results: it is a \u003cem\u003erealistic\u003c\/em\u003e interpretation (in  the sense of scientific realism). One of the notable achievements of  this interpretation is that it dissolves the notorious measurement  problem. \u003cbr\u003e  The papers collected here, together with the introduction and  concluding critical appraisal, explain the various forms of the modal  interpretation, survey its achievements, and discuss those problems  that have yet to be solved. \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cem\u003eAudience:\u003c\/em\u003e Philosophers of science, theoretical physicists, and  graduate students in these disciplines.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2012-11-05\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9789401061353\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-011-5084-2\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 240cm x160cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 381\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44359089127564,"sku":"9789401061353","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9789401061353.jpg?v=1779504927","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9789401061353","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
