Paperback. Condition: Very good. Paperback. 9 1/4" X 6". xvi, 280pp; x, 225pp. Bound in glossy printed wraps. Moderate edgewear to bindings, with bumping to head of spines. Bindings are firm and sound, with no creasing to spines. Pages are clean and unmarked. A nice set, complete in two volumes of this guide to the practical art… of plausible reasoning. ABOUT THIS SET: A guide to the practical art of plausible reasoning, this book has relevance in every field of intellectual activity. Professor Polya, a world-famous mathematician from Stanford University, uses mathematics to show how hunches and guesses play an important part in even the most rigorously deductive science. He explains how solutions to problems can be guessed at; good guessing is often more important than rigorous deduction in finding correct solutions. Vol. I, on Induction and Analogy in Mathematics, covers a wide variety of mathematical problems, revealing the trains of thought that lead to solutions, pointing out false bypaths, discussing techniques of searching for proofs. Problems and examples challenge curiosity, judgment, and power of invention. Vol. II, on Patterns of Plausible Inference, attempts to develop a logic of plausibility. What makes some evidence stronger and some weaker? How does one seek evidence that will make a suspected truth more probable? These questions involve philosophy and psychology as well as mathematics. (Publisher).
