ABSTRACT
On hearing a sound, scenting a perfume, enjoying a taste, I sometimes recognize the quality, and say that it is like such and such a sound, perfume, or taste I once experienced. This similarity between two sense terms has degrees like all resemblances, but in these cases is not limited expressly to only one of the various aspects of the terms which it compares. Since it takes each of the terms as single wholes, it may be called global resemblance. We shall soon see that there are two other types of more differentiated resemblance.
