Excerpt from Inductive Logic
It has been my aim, in the following pages, to present the essential features of inductive logic, in the hope that this work may prove a fitting supplement to the elementary courses in formal or deductive logic. The impression is too often left in the minds of those who have pursued the study of deductive logic exclusively that the formal laws of the syllogism constitute the entire body of logical doctrine, and that reasoning consists solely in drawing conclusions from given premises. There is danger here lest reasoning become associated with an artificial procedure that seems to find its proper sphere in the solution of verbal quibbles and logical puzzles. In the actual experiences of life, we do not find our premises ready made. They are the result of wide observation and patient investigation and experiment. We challenge premises that are given, and weigh their significance. We meet particular facts before we do the general laws.

Leopold is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. This means that we have checked every single page in every title, making it highly unlikely that any material imperfections – such as poor picture quality, blurred or missing text - remain. When our staff observed such imperfections in the original work, these have either been repaired, or the title has been excluded from the Leopold Classic Library catalogue.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book analyzes inductive inference, a crucial logical concept used to reach reasonable conclusions from specific observations. Despite the longstanding significance of inductive inference, the author emphasizes a modern understanding of the concept, which recognizes the significance of the universal in establishing the validity of an inference. The book explores the complex relationship between induction and deduction, arguing that they are not separate processes but rather two sides of the same logical coin. The author also discusses various types of inductive inference, including enumeration, comparison, and scientific analysis, providing examples from real-world research and everyday life to illustrate how these methods are used to draw conclusions and make predictions. Overall, this book aims to deepen our understanding of inductive inference, and how it can be used to make informed judgments and advance our knowledge. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
