This book delves into themes of metaphysics and philosophical method, acknowledging the two great engines of philosophical discovery in ancient times as syllogism and induction. The author's central insight is that analogy is the great instrument of generalization and invention, largely precursor to induction's role as the collection and examination of experiments. The author argues for a synthesis of deductive reasoning and analogical thinking as the best possible means to advancement in all fields of philosophical inquiry.
