review text: The role of the projection postulate in quantum theory is discussed. This postulate can be considered as a theorem according to which each property of a physical system admits a pure ideal first-kind measurement, or as an axiom formalizing such a measurement theoretical assumption, or as a precondition for an operational semantics of a scientific language. Moreover, this postulate appears as a presupposition of the fundamental quantum principles.
