Publisher's Synopsis

This seminal philosophical work advocates for individual freedom and limited government intervention in personal lives, as long as actions do not harm others. It explores the concept of liberty, emphasizing free speech, individuality, and the pursuit of happiness. Mill argues for the protection of minority opinions and warns against the "tyranny of the majority," making a compelling case for liberal democracy and personal autonomy.

John Stuart Mill (1806-1873) was a British philosopher, political economist, civil servant, and Member of Parliament. An influential liberal thinker of the 19th century, he taught utilitarianism, an ethical theory developed by his godfather, Jeremy Bentham.
