| 书目名称 | The Logic of the Plausible and Some of its Applications | | 编辑 | René Leclercq | | 视频video | | | 图书封面 |  | | 描述 | So simple and imperfect as it may appear this book has made use of knowledge on invention and discovery accumu lated during a lifetime. Those persons who would be tempted to emphasize only its imperfections should read the correspondence exchanged between Cantor and Dedekind at the end of the nineteenth century; they would then realize how difficult it was, even for an outstanding man, the creator of the set theory, to propose impeccable results in a completely new field. The field I have chosen here is plausibility. I have proposed an intuitive, some would say a naive, presentation as I want to reach as large an audience as possible and because I personally believe that it is easier to axiomatize a mathematical theory precisely than to dis cover it and enunciate its key theorems. Professor Polya said: "The truly creative mathematician is a good guesser first and a good prover afterward. " For centuries a formalized generalized logic was found necessary and many attempts have been made to build it. vi Preface Mine is based on plausibility which covers with precision a wider field than probability and makes the formalization of analogy and generalization possible. As Laplace said: | | 出版日期 | Book 1974 | | 关键词 | analogy; knowledge; logic; probability; truth | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4684-0742-6 | | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4684-0744-0 | | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4684-0742-6 | | copyright | Plenum Publishing Company Ltd 1974 |
