{"product_id":"9781316189597","title":"Protective Measurement and Quantum Reality: Towards a New Understanding of Quantum Mechanics","description":"Protective measurements offer an intriguing method for measuring the wave function of a single quantum system. With contributions from leading physicists and philosophers of physics - including two of the original discoverers of this important method - this book explores the concept of protective measurement, investigating its broad applications and deep implications. Addressing both physical and philosophical aspects, it covers a diverse range of topics, including experimental possibility of protective measurements, connections with the PBR theorem, and the implications of protective measurements for understanding the nature of quantum reality. Including a clear and concise introduction to standard quantum mechanics, conventional measurements, and the fundamentals of protective measurements, this is a valuable resource for graduate students and researchers interested in the conceptual foundations of quantum mechanics.","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47130957512944,"sku":"9781316189597","price":82.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781316189597_p0.jpg?v=1763707744","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781316189597","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
