In this collection of essays, Mill presents his key philosophical contributions to ethics, political theory, and governance. 'Utilitarianism' advocates for the greatest happiness principle as the foundation of morality, while 'On Liberty' defends individual freedom against societal interference. 'Representative Government' explores the ideal structure of democratic governance. Together, these works highlight Mill’s enduring influence on liberal thought, individual rights, and the balance between authority and freedom.John Stuart Mill (1806-1873) was a British philosopher, political economist, civil servant, and Member of Parliament. An advocate of utilitarianism, he was one of the most influential liberal thinkers of the 19th century.
