Abstract

The article offers the author's insights regarding his argument against philosophers Bertrand Russell and Alfred North Whitehead who assumed an asymmetry between the logocentric predicament and the problem of induction. The author discusses the internal relation of justification with deductive and inductive inferences. He mentions that the two philosophers believes that the symmetry will show that skepticism was unpreventable during justification for reasoning's structure.
