Abstract

The author discusses Professor Darlington's recent paper "On the Confirmation of Laws." He criticizes Professor Darlington for not writing out in full the evidence sentence in formula III of his paper, and expresses doubts as to whether Professor Darlington's solution to the problem of the confirmation of laws follows from the complete version of that formula
