Synopsis
This book delves into the realm of inference and assertion, exploring the intricate relationship between them. The author argues that implication is best conceived as potential inference, and that inference can only be fully understood in terms of its epistemic validity, the mental process of drawing conclusions. The book provides a comprehensive analysis of the syllogism, demonstrating how the applicative and implicative principles of inference are employed successively. It also examines the distinction between substantive and adjective, and their roles in constructing propositions. The author further discusses the notion of identity involved in every proposition, arguing that it presupposes the understanding of the terms involved without asserting it. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the foundations of logic and the nature of inference, offering a fresh perspective on these fundamental concepts.
