Collector's Edition Laminated Hardback with Jacket
In this philosophical exploration, readers are invited to consider the foundations of morality and the principle of utility, which argues that actions are right if they promote happiness and wrong if they produce the opposite. The work delves into the nuances of pleasure, pain, justice, and the greater good, challenging conventional ideas about ethical decision-making. Through compelling arguments and vivid examples, it offers a framework for evaluating human behavior in both personal and societal contexts. With its thought-provoking insights, it encourages readers to reflect on the balance between individual interests and the well-being of all.
Utilitarianism is a groundbreaking work that revolutionized moral philosophy by championing the principle of utility, shaping modern ethical thought and public policy. John Stuart Mill expanded on earlier utilitarian ideas, linking happiness to justice and societal progress. Its influence extended beyond philosophy, inspiring debates on human rights, democracy, and economic reform. As a cornerstone of moral theory, it continues to challenge and guide how we evaluate the impact of our actions on society.
