Abstract
In this paper I distinguish two problems of induction: a problem of the uniformity of nature and a problem of the variety of nature. I argue that the traditional problem of induction that Popper poses-the problem of uniformity-is not that which is relevant to science. The problem relevant to science is that of the variety of nature. © 1989 Oxford University Press.
