               "Proofs, Deductions, Chains of Reasoning"

This talk begins with a brief review of the deductive  and  hypothetico-
deductive methods and then introduces the distinction between proofs and
deductions.  The core of the paper is a discussion of the logical,  his-
torical,  epistemic,  pragmatic, and heuristic ramifications of the dis-
tinction between proofs and deductions.
