Books by John Stuart Mill

John Stuart Mill (1806–1873) was a British philosopher, economist, and political reformer and the most important liberal thinker of the Victorian era. Educated rigorously from childhood by his father James Mill and the utilitarian philosopher Jeremy Bentham, he went on to work for the East India Company for three decades while writing major works on logic, economics, ethics, and political philosophy. His other major works include On Liberty, A System of Logic, Principles of Political Economy, and The Subjection of Women. He served briefly in Parliament in the 1860s and advocated for women's suffrage.
