Jeffrey, John, Peirce-list, You can read 35 pages of Peirce on Inference right now. Click on the icon of the book that is to the right from the book’s title and the source of the excerpt: books.google.com.
I gave this link before, and someone may have read it. It is interesting, as you will see. Although the book does not refer to “things in themselves,” as noted already, it puts the terms “deduction, induction, and abduction” in a new light.
