Synopsis

Excerpt from A System of Logic, Ratiocinative and Inductive

Tms book makes no pretense of giving to the world a new theory of the intellectual operations. Its claim to attention, if it possess any, is ground ed on the fact that it is an attempt, not to supersede, but to embody and systematize, the best ideas which have been either promulgated on its sub ject by speculative writers, or conformed to by accurate thinkers in their scientific inquiries. To cement together the detached fragments of a subject, never yet treat ed as a. Whole; to harmonize the true portions of discordant theories, by supplying the links of thought necessary to connect them, and by discutan gling them from the errors with which they are always more or less inter woven, must necessarily require a considerable amount of original specula tion. To other originality than this, the present work lays no claim. In the existing state of the cultivation of the sciences, there would be a very strong presumption against any one who should imagine that he had effect ed a. Revolution in the theory of the investigation of truth, or added any fundamentally new process to the practice of it. The improvement which remains to be effected in the methods of philosophizing (and the author be lieves that they have much need of improvement) can only consist in per forming more systematically and accurately operations with which, at least in their elementary form, the human intellect, in some one or other of its employments, is already familiar.
