 Under the heading more and less and likewise, Aristotle groups a somewhat motley assortment of argument patterns all involving, in some way or other, the terms “more”, “less”, and “likewise”. Examples: “If whatever is \(A\) is \(B\), then whatever is more (less) \(A\) is more (less) \(B\)”; “If \(A\) is more likely \(B\) than \(C\) is, and \(A\) is not \(B\), then neither is \(C\)”; “If \(A\) is more likely than \(B\) and \(B\) is the case, then \(A\) is the case”.
