Abstract
Ever since quantum theory was developed during the first quarter of the 20th century, we have lived with a strange division. Objects in our daily lives behave "normally" – they appear to obey classical physics – whereas microscopic objects can behave counter-intuitively and reveal intriguing features of quantum physics. But where exactly is the boundary between the quantum and classical worlds – if, indeed, there is one? If quantum physics is a universal theory, why is it respectable to talk about the quantum behaviour of electrons but not, say, of footballs?
