    Analogical arguings and explainings
    (Colorado State University. Libraries, 1989) Johnson, Fred (Frederick A.), author; University of Windsor, publisher
    Johnson takes arguings and explainings to be more fundamental than arguments and explanations. The former require agents for their explication. Johnson contends that the texts fail to recognize that many ordinary analogical arguments and explanations have a deductive structure. According to Johnson, analogies are often used to state general principles, which are a part of the structure of analogical arguments and explanations. Johnson compares his analysis of analogies with Levi's analysis of legal reasoning and with Aristotle's analysis of "reasoning by example."

    Deductively-inductively
    (Colorado State University. Libraries, 1980) Johnson, Fred (Frederick A.), author; University of Windsor, publisher
    Johnson separates arguments from acts of arguing and claim that the deductive/inductive distinction belongs with the latter not with the former.
