About this book
Creators: Carveth Read (1848-1931) "Logic: Deductive and Inductive" by Carveth Read is a scientific publication written in the late 19th century. The book explores the principles of logic, focusing on how propositions can be proved, classified, and employed in various fields of knowledge. It delves into both deductive and inductive reasoning, aiming to provide a comprehensive examination of logical principles and methods. The opening of the book introduces logic as a science that determines what conditions must be fulfilled for propositions to be proved, distinguishing between quantitative and qualitative propositions. Read discusses different types of proof, including immediate and mediate inference, and emphasizes that while logic outlines the structure of arguments, it does not seek to establish the truth of its foundational principles. The initial chapters are geared towards defining fundamental concepts in logic, such as propositions and terms, paving the way for deeper explorations of logical reasoning throughout the text.
