ABSTRACT
Co-authored with Robert Nola, this essay originally appeared as Sylvan and Nola 1991, in an edited festschrift in honour o f Paul Weingartner. [Editors]
Our modest aim is to show how, within a suitable relevant logical framework, all the paradoxes of confirmation vanish-not merely those Hempel and Carnap adduced, but those uncovered by Good, Goodman, Glymour, and others. But, naturally, even removing these paradoxes wholesale still leaves much logical work to be done, work we shall not try to complete here. What we shall indicate however, in the final section, is convergent work undertaken independently by Paul Weingartner and collaborators, which resolves paradoxes in an analogous fashion.
