  This paper presents a philosophically realistic analysis of quantization,
field-particle duality, superposition, entanglement, nonlocality, and
measurement. These are logically related: Realistically understanding
measurement depends on realistically understanding superposition, entanglement,
and nonlocality; understanding these three depends on understanding
field-particle duality and quantization. This paper resolves all six, based on
a realistic view of standard quantum physics. It concludes that, for these
issues, standard quantum physics is consistent with scientific practice since
Copernicus: Nature exists on its own and science's goal is to understand its
operating principles, which are independent of humans. Quantum theory need not
be regarded as merely the study of what humans can know about the microscopic
world, but can instead view it as the study of real quanta such as electrons,
photons, and atoms. This position has long been argued by Mario Bunge.
