Abducting the Unicorn is the debut album by the band The Pineapple Thief, released in 1999. Originally titled "Abducted at Birth", it was later renamed due to the label requesting the title to suggest a connection to Soord's previous band, Vulgar Unicorn. On 25 February 2014, it was announced via their Facebook page that the upcoming reissue, slated for release in early 2015 will return to the originally intended title as mentioned above. Being that the album was loosely written about how we are all, in some way, indoctrinated from birth, the title "Abducting the Unicorn" was regarded as nonsensical therefore the label Kscope having subsequently agreed to the original title.

Abductive reasoning (also called abduction, abductive inference or retroduction) is a form of logical inference which goes from an observation to a theory which accounts for the observation, ideally seeking to find the simplest and most likely explanation. In abductive reasoning, unlike in deductive reasoning, the premises do not guarantee the conclusion. One can understand abductive reasoning as "inference to the best explanation".In the 1990s, as computing power grew, the fields of law, computer science, and artificial intelligence research spurred renewed interest in the subject of abduction.Diagnostic expert systems frequently employ abduction.
