I thought I did... for instance, Tipler's book "The Physics of Immortality" and Barrow and Tipler "The Anthropic
Cosmological Principle" do provide a discussion of the Anthropic Principle.. Tipler crosses the line and gets too

I am not sure what if you are referring to the collapse of the wave function after measurement, or to the concept of
measure which has been discussed in this group, or something else...
