Varieties of Quantum Measurement

Abstract

Quantum measurement theory has fallen under the resticting influence of the attempt to explain the fundamental axioms of quantum theory in terms of the theory itself. This has not only led to confusion but has also restricted our attention to a limited class of measurements. This paper outlines some of the novel types of measurements which fall outside the usual textbook description.
