    This long paper provides an overview of much of the work relating deduction in a propositional algebra to constraints on probabilities, or sets of probabilities, in that same algebra. The paper reviews and extends work of \textit{E. W. Adams} [e.g., A primer of probability logic. CSLI Lect. Notes 68 (1998; Zbl 0910.68202)], \textit{T. Hailperin} [e.g., sequential probability logic. Origins, development, current status, and technical applications (1996; Zbl 0922.03026)], and others in this area.
