Inductive Logic– Analogies Causation and Generalizations
In this chapter we learn about three types of common inductive reasoning: arguments using analogies, arguments about cause and effect, and arguments involving generalization. For each of these 3 types of inductive reasoning we learn about their qualities and what works best to produce stronger arguments, as well as what weakens them.
