Synopsis
Excerpt from A System of Logic, Ratiocinative and Inductive: Being a Connected View of the Principles of Evidence and the Methods of Scientific Investigation
Truths are known to us in two ways some are known directly, and of themselves; some through the medium of other truths. The firmer are the subject of Intuition, or Consciousness; the latter, of Inference. The truths known by intuition are the original premisses h'om which all others are inferred. Our assent to the conclusion being grounded upon the truth of the premisses, we never could arrive at any knowledge by reasoning, unless something could be known antecedently to all reasoning.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, an in-depth examination of the guiding principles for reasoning and inference, addresses a fundamental part of our knowledge. Logic, the study of the principles of correct reasoning, is the focus of the authorās inquiry, which begins with an investigation of the basic elements of logic - terms and propositions. Concepts of truth and error, belief and inquiry, and the very nature of knowledge itself are explored. The author asserts that key questions mankind has asked itself are best understood through an examination of propositions, which he finds are composed of two names - the subject and the predicate - joined by a copula (the connecting term). The author concludes that all knowledge gained outside of direct consciousness must be supported by evidence, and the rules of logic provide the means to distinguish the proven from the unproven. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9780331539233_0
