Abstract

The so-called many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics is one of the main contenders in current approaches to solve the quantum-measurement problem. Due to the demands it imposes on our imagination and its oftentimes bizarre ramifications, if not to say its – well – craziness, the approach also features prominently in the popular perception of the debates on the foundations of quantum mechanics.
