Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is an exploration of induction, deduction, and the theory of probability as tools to explain the scientific method. The author argues that all reasoning is ultimately an inverse employment of deduction. An examination of the development of physics illustrates the role hypothetical anticipation plays in scientific inquiry. The book also provides a detailed account of the theory of probability as an essential part of logical method. The author concludes that our knowledge of nature is inexact and that the scientific account of the universe is an affirmation rather than a negation of religious belief.
