摘要：

Inductive probability is the logical concept of probability in ordinary language It is vague but it can be explicated by defining a clear and precise concept that can serve some of the same purposes This paper presents a general method for doing such an explication and then a particular explication due to Carnap Common criticisms of Carnap's inductive logic are examined, it is shown that most of them are spurious and the others are not fundamental
