Description

James Mill (1773-1836) remains one of the most underappreciated figures in utilitarian philosophy, often overshadowed by his son John Stuart Mill and Jeremy Bentham. This Routledge Studies in Modern British History volume challenges the conventional portrayal of Mill as merely a rationalist and geometrician, offering fresh scholarly analysis of his intellectual contributions to nineteenth-century utilitarian thought. Through careful examination of Mill's background and ideas, this book reassesses his role in shaping utilitarian theory and demonstrates that his work merits far greater recognition than previously accorded. Ideal for historians of philosophy, political theorists, and students of British intellectual history seeking a deeper understanding of utilitarian development and the undervalued architect of its logical foundations.
