According to the modal interpretation, the standard mathematical
framework of quantum mechanics specifies the physical magnitudes of
a system, which have definite values. Probabilities are assigned to
the possible values that these magnitudes may adopt. The
interpretation is thus concerned with physical properties rather
than with measurement results: it is a realistic interpretation (in
the sense of scientific realism). One of the notable achievements
of this interpretation is that it dissolves the notorious
measurement problem. The papers collected here, together with the
introduction and concluding critical appraisal, explain the various
forms of the modal interpretation, survey its achievements, and
discuss those problems that have yet to be solved. Audience:
Philosophers of science, theoretical physicists, and graduate
students in these disciplines.
