In reply to the claim that my statement

        'deduction proceeds from the general (axioms) to
         the specific (propositions), induction proceeds from
         the specific to the general.'

is not correct (according to Kahane, LOGIC AND CONTEMPORARY RHETORIC),
see Aristotle, BASIC WORKS OF ARISTOTLE, ed. by R. McKeon, Random
House, 1941.
