This volume contains the first new edition and a German translation of the master's thesis that Christian Garve wrote in Halle. Neglected in the literature thus far and missing from Garve's collected works, this text provides a systematic examination of the concept of probability in the fields of logic, metaphysics, and the sciences. Garve thus took leave of school philosophy as early as in 1766.
