THE SUBSTITUTION OF SIMILARS, the True Principle of 

 Reasoning. Derived from a Modification of Aristotle's Dictum. 

 Fcap. 8vo. 2^. 6d, 



All acts of reasoning^''' the author says, "seem to me to be dif- 

 ferent cases of one unifoi^^n process, which may perhaps be best 

 described as the substitution of similars. This phrase clearly 

 expresses that familiar mode in which we continually argue by 

 analogy from like to like, and take one thing as a representative 

 of another. The chief difficulty consists in showing that all the 

 forms of the old logic, as well as the fundamental rules of mathe- 

 matical reasonings may be explained upon the same principle; and 

 it is to this difficult task I have devoted the most attention. Should 

 my notion be true, a vast mass of technicalities may be swept from 

 our logical text-books and yet the small remaining part of logical 

 doctrine will prove far more useful than all the learning of the 

 Schoolmen.'*'^ Prefixed is apian of a nezv reasoning machine, the 

 Logical Abacus, the construction and working of which is fully 



explained in the text and Appendix,
