Synopsis:
A landmark of moral philosophy and an ideal introduction to ethics, this famous work balances the claims of individuals and society, declaring that all actions should produce the greatest happiness overall. It remains as relevant today as it was to intellectual and moral dilemmas of the 19th century.
Book Description: Reissued in its corrected 1864 second edition, this work by the philosopher John Stuart Mill (1806–73) argues for a utilitarian theory of morality, refining Bentham's 'greatest happiness' principle and defending it from common criticisms. Mill's key discussion on the topic, it remains a fundamental text in ethics.
