Dear Listers, Please forgive the basic nature of the question....However, I fully admit to being a novice and thus I am struggling to understand the differences between abduction and retroduction (if any). In addition, whilst I do understand the origins of the former, I am less certain of those of the latter. Any explanations and/or references to aid my limited understanding would be most greatly appreciated! Regards, David Simm Room A54a Dept.
