Excerpt from Elements of Inductive Logic
In preparing the present treatise, I have kept in view the need of collegians and of graduate students in the universities, and endeavored to furnish them with a satisfactory hand-book on Induction. The few pages in popular treatises on Deductive Logic usually allotted to this co-ordinate branch being utterly inadequate and disproportionate, and thereby greatly underrating its extent and importance, should be replaced by a separate treatise comprehending at least the essential elements of Induction, and opening the way for its full investigation and application. In the hope of supplying this want, I offer to students well advanced in the schools the work in hand.
Special students engaged in the pursuit of physical science, who have not enjoyed a full course in Logic, need a compact hand-book on Induction, in order to gain a clearer insight into the principles of the methods they arc employing, and thus to avoid a waste of energy, and the discouragement of blunders in the dark. To this class of students, also, and to the general reader who desires a clearer knowledge of his own mental processes and of those of the scientist skilled in the discovery of truth, ray work is hopefully addressed.
With these ends in view, I have earnestly tried, first of all, to be true in matter, then clear and distinct in its treatment.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book unveils the intricacies of induction, a cornerstone of scientific inquiry. By synthesising observations, induction allows scientists to venture beyond their immediate experiences and formulate universal principles that govern the natural world. The author delves into the history and philosophy of induction, distinguishing it from deduction and exploring its fundamental principles. They illuminate the concept of causation, the bedrock of induction, and the principles of change and uniformity. These principles provide a framework for understanding how events are interconnected and how scientists can uncover the laws that shape the universe. Through examples and historical context, the author reveals the power of induction in shaping scientific thought. They trace its evolution from ancient Greek philosophies to the scientific revolutions of the Renaissance and beyond. The book emphasises the importance of induction in fields as diverse as physics, psychology, and medicine, demonstrating its pivotal role in expanding our understanding of the cosmos. In conclusion, this book provides a comprehensive exploration of induction, its principles, and its far-reaching implications for scientific enquiry and our understanding of the world around us. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
