The book ""Utility of Religion"" by John Stuart Mill is a philosophical work that explores the role and purpose of religion in society. Mill argues that religion should be judged based on its utility, or usefulness, rather than its truth or falsehood. He contends that religion can be beneficial for individuals and society, as it can provide moral guidance, comfort, and a sense of community. However, Mill also acknowledges the potential harm that religion can cause, such as intolerance and oppression. Throughout the book, he examines various religious beliefs and practices, and evaluates their utility based on their effects on individuals and society. Overall, ""Utility of Religion"" is a thought-provoking exploration of the complex relationship between religion and society.THIS 62 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Nature; The Utility Of Religion; And Theism, by John Stuart Mill.

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. See the many other works by this author available from Kessinger Publishing.

This books is a reprint of the Sixth Book of Mill's A System of Logic ratiocinative and inductive, being a connected view of the principles of evidence and the methods of scientific investigation, first published in 1843. The text has been reset from the eighth edition (1872), the last edition published in Mill's lifetime.

This is a classic work of ethical theory, arguably the most persuasive and comprehensible presentation of this widely influential position. The complete text of Utilitarianism is presented, with footnote annotations added to clarify unfamiliar references and terminology.

Heavily influenced by the work of David Ricardo, and also taking ideas from Adam Smith and Thomas Malthus, the author demonstrates how important economic concepts could be applied to real-world situations. This work is intended for anyone with an interest in the history of economics or the history of ideas.

Reissued in its revised 1866 second edition, this is Mill's discussion of the positivist views of French philosopher and social scientist Auguste Comte (1798-1857). Mill analyses Comte's earlier works on positivism in the natural and social sciences, and then positivism's application in areas such as religion and ethics.

Since its first publication in 1859, few works of political philosophy have provoked such continuous controversy as John Stuart Mills On Liberty, a passionate argument on behalf of freedom of self-expression. This classic work is now available in a new edition that also includes essays by distinguished scholars in a range of fields.The book begins with a biographical essay by David Bromwich and an interpretative essay by George Kateb. Then Jean Bethke Elshtain, Owen Fiss, Judge Richard A. Posner, and Jeremy Waldron present commentaries on the pertinence of Mills thinking to current debates. They discuss, for example, the uses of authority and tradition, the shifting legal boundaries of free speech and free action, the relation of personal liberty to market individualism, and the tension between the right to live as one pleases and the right to criticize anyones way of life.
