Description

John Stuart Mill's moral and political philosophy is explored in this original study by Frederick Rosen. The work examines the main themes from Mill's major writings, including System of Logic (1843) and Principles of Political Economy (1848), which shaped his later essays on liberty, utilitarianism, and representative government.

Rosen delves into Mill's complex relationships with other thinkers of his time, as well as his philosophical sources, to illustrate the enduring influence of his ideas. The book considers Mill's approaches to logic, politics, and economics, offering new interpretations of his concepts of liberty, justice, equality, and utility.

Mill's ideas remain relevant today, addressing debates that continue to shape contemporary life. This study provides a guide for exploring and resolving these issues, making it a valuable resource for understanding the philosopher's humane and civilising philosophy.
