SUMMARY:Conditionals: From Trivalent Semantics to Probabilistic Reasoning
DESCRIPTION:There are two major research projects on indicative conditional
 s: the semantic project of determining their truth conditions\, and the ep
 istemological project of how we should reason with them\, and when they ar
 e probable or assertable. This paper integrates both projects on the basis
  of a trivalent\, truth-functional account of the truth conditions of cond
 itionals. This account generalizes a logic of deductive inference (i.e.\, 
 with certain premises) to conditionals and it yields an account of the pro
 bability of conditionals\, which validates The Equation (=Adams's Thesis)\
 , is immune to the triviality results and generates an attractive conditio
 nal logic for uncertain reasoning. Hence\, we obtain a unified theory of t
 he truth conditions and probability of conditionals that outperforms compe
 ting conditional logics and yields an insightful analysis of the controver
 sy about the validity of Modus Ponens.
