Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 1886. John Stuart Mill is one of the foremost representatives of utilitarian thought as well as one of the most influential of nineteenth century liberals. Influenced by his wife, Harriet Taylor, Mill developed a very humane version of utilitarianism that was sympathetic to women's rights, labor unions, proportional representation, and other liberal themes. This edition contains both Part I and II of A System of Logic. This is the first major installment of Mill's comprehensive restatement of his empiricist and utilitarian position and makes plain his belief that social planning and political action should rely primarily on scientific knowledge, not on authority, custom, revelation, or prescription.
