Once upon a time the well-known paradoxes of quantum mechanics seemed especially difficult because of the rather bizarre behavior of the wave packet under the von Neumann theory of measurement, to which behavior these paradoxical situations seemed to draw especial attention. Quite recently quantum theoretical accounts of the measurement process have been appearing which sidestep direct reference to such things as “contraction” of the wave packet. With this development it has become increasingly popular to take a “cool” approach to these (...) paradoxes, arguing that the new approach to measurement provides a consistent, nonbizarre account of the physical situations and that the paradoxicality was due largely to intuitive blunders—even plausible intuitive blunders—accentuated by the unfortunate features of the von Neumann approach to measurement. Both Krips and Jauch, for example, adopt this approach. (shrink)
