Abstract

The issue of ontology in quantum mechanics, or equivalently the issue of the reality of the wave function is critically examined within standard quantum theory. It is argued that though no strict ontology is possible within quantum theory, ingenious measurement schemes may still make the notion of a \emph{FAPP Ontology} i.e ontology for all practical purposes (a phrase coined by John Bell), meaningful and useful.
