Abstract
This paper addresses the foundations of diagnostic reasoning, in particular the viability of a probabilistic approach. One might be reluctant to adopt such an approach for one of two reasons: one may suppose that the probabilistic approach is inappropriate or that it is impractical to implement. I shall attempt to overcome any such doubts and to argue that on the contrary the probabilistic method is extremely promising.
