AS REPORTEDno primary record reached; this is what the reporting says
Is it true that Goodman's new riddle of induction is a restatement of Hume's problem?
No. Goodman's new riddle of induction is not merely a restatement of Hume's problem; rather, philosophical sources describe it as a successor or a distinct further problem concerning projectible predicates.
