So that even in this extreme case, at the very limit of the rational exercise of human powers, there is nothing to distinguish Description from Induction. I shall now leave the reader to judge whether this feature in the history of science, --that several views which appear at first quite different are yet all true, --which Mr Mill calls a curious and interesting remark of mine, and which he allows to be "strikingly true" of the Inductions which he calls Descriptions, (i. 364) is, as he says, "unequivocally false" of other Inductions. And I shall confide in having general assent with me, when I continue to speak of Kepler's Induction of the elliptical orbits. I now proceed to another remark. 27 There is a difference between Mr Mill and me in our view of the essential elements of this Induction of Kepler, which a...
