To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The aim of Science is to make our generalisations less and less " empirical, " by understanding GENERAL RESULTS 185 as far as we can luhy such and such events have occurred together or in succession. Its method consists in analysing the occurrence into a tissue of smaller occurrences, and then distinguishing among them those which it is (comparatively) safe to assume to be cases of direct causal sequence. Professor Marshall Ward's conclusions about the behaviour of Botrytis^ do not yet appear t...o have been overthrown ; but it has been definitely found unsafe to assume, with the two French pro- fessors mentioned above, ^ that a lapse of twenty-four hours makes no essential differ- ence to the splenic fever infection. It remains now briefly to indicate what I conceive to be the practical use of depart- ing from the ordinary abstract view of the process of Inference, and of following out its complications in the direction here suggested. In some respects its justification is much the same as that of philosophy in general.
