Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Notes on Psychology From Lectures Given
There are two methods employed in science, the inductive and the deductive. The deductive method is employed in mathematics and in logzig. It proceeds from general axionis which must apply to all particular cases; in other words, from something given or granted to something derived therefrom by thought. In the physical sciences, the in ductive method is pursued. It proceeds to collect and arrange facts; to Observe the'laws running through these facts, and then completes the investigation by ascertaining, by experiment, whether similar facts will occur under the same law. Galileo was the first to use this method, although Bacon perfected it.
