Abstract

Excerpt from A Manual of Logic The present volume completes the work, the first volume of which was issued more than four years ago. In apology to my readers for this delay I can only plead the pressure of other work, and the desire not to place before them a hastily written treatise. The doctrine of Induction here set forth is in substantial agreement with that developed by Dr. Bosanquet in his most philosophical book on Logic. To Dr. Bosanquet I owe a deep debt of gratitude for his kindness in giving me permission to make full use of his labours - a permission of which it will be seen I have freely availed myself. In this portion of my work I also owe much to the works of Mr. Bradley, Sigwart, Lotze, Jevons and Whewell. In the treatment of Fallacies I would express my indebtedness to my friend, Professor Mackenzie, for his valuable help in the matter of classification.
