6. G. Ghirardi(1981). In his Referee Report for Foundations of Physics to the paper by N. Herbert [6], Ghirardi gives a fully formulated impossibility proof based on the linearity of quantum mechanics, for the existence of any universal noiseless amplifier, This is indeed the first demonstration of the "no cloning theorem". We do not support the somewhat dismissive attitude taken by A. Peres (this book) towards that very important contribution. W. K. Wootters and W. K. Zurek, Nature 299, 802 (1982).
