About this title

Synopsis

""System of Logic Ratiocinative and Inductive"" is a comprehensive book written by John Stuart Mill. The book provides a detailed overview of the principles of evidence and the methods of scientific investigation. Mill's work is divided into two parts: the first part focuses on the principles of deductive reasoning, while the second part focuses on the principles of inductive reasoning. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the nature of evidence, the principles of causation, the methods of scientific investigation, and the role of probability in reasoning. Mill's work is considered a classic in the field of logic and has had a significant influence on the development of modern scientific methodology. The book is written in a clear and accessible style, making it suitable for both students and scholars of logic and philosophy.1886. John Stuart Mill is one of the foremost representatives of utilitarian thought as well as one of the most influential of nineteenth century liberals. Influenced by his wife, Harriet Taylor, Mill developed a very humane version of utilitarianism that was sympathetic to women's rights, labor unions, proportional representation, and other liberal themes. This edition contains both Part I and II of A System of Logic. This is the first major installment of Mill's comprehensive restatement of his empiricist and utilitarian position and makes plain his belief that social planning and political action should rely primarily on scientific knowledge, not on authority, custom, revelation, or prescription.
