• Between classical and quantum (2005, background): “remains even more miraculous than before that there is a single outcome after each such measurement. Thus decoherence as such does not provide a solution to the measurement problem (Leggett, 2002;313 Adler, 2003; Joos & Zeh, 2003), but is in actual fact parasitic on such a solution. 3. There hav”
