Abstract

First of all, the correct analysis of classical realism is set forth. It is then shown how this eliminates the obvious problems derived from the thesis that various facts and features exist only when measured. This concern includes the claim that classical realism stands or falls with classical physics. Next, the concern that there is no actual reality of the quantum world prior to measurement is answered.
