John Stuart Mill 
The Collected Works of John Stuart Mill [EPUB ebook] 

John Stuart Mill was an eminent English philosopher, political economist, and civil servant of the 19th century. Born on May 20, 1806, in London, he was the eldest son of the Scottish philosopher and economist James Mill. John S. Mill was educated by his father with the intention of molding him into a young prodigy to carry the banner of their utilitarian philosophy. He mastered an extensive range of subjects, from Greek and Latin classics to political economy and logic, by an early age. Mill’s intellectual contributions to philosophy and political economy are vast and have had a profound influence on Western thought. His seminal work ‘On Liberty’ contends for the respect of individual freedom and limited government interference, advocating for the ‘harm principle.’ His other major works include ‘Utilitarianism, ‘ where he refined the utilitarian doctrine of Jeremy Bentham, and ‘The Subjection of Women, ‘ which argues for gender equality and women’s suffrage, and remains a classic text in feminist philosophy. His ‘Principles of Political Economy’ has been credited with bridging classical and contemporary economic thought. The ‘Collected Works of John Stuart Mill’ is a testament to his prolific scholarship and includes not only his most well-known texts but also his essays, letters, and notes. Mill’s contributions to logic, epistemology, and social theory have made him a key figure in the liberal tradition. His advocacy for individual liberties, along with his progressive views on social issues, such as women’s rights, have left an indelible mark on modern liberalism. Mill died on May 8, 1873, in Avignon, France, but his writings continue to be a central reference for discussions on liberty, justice, and equality.
