Book Summary
About the Book: Utilitarianism and Other Essays
One of the most important nineteenth-century schools of thought, Utilitarianism
propounds the view that the value or rightness of an action rests in how well it
promotes the welfare of those affected by it, aiming for the greatest happiness
of the greatest number. Jeremy Bentham (1748-1832) was the movements founder, as
much a social reformer as a philosopher. His greatest interpreter, John Stuart
Mill (1806-73), set out to humanize Benthams pragmatic Utilitarianism by
balancing the claims of reason and the imagination, individuality and social
well-being in essays such as Bentham, Coleridge and, above all, Utilitarianism.
