Exploring the balance between individual freedom and state authority, John Stuart Mill's essays delve into critical philosophical issues. "On Liberty" examines the tension between liberty and authority, while "Utilitarianism" outlines the principle of achieving the greatest good for the greatest number. In "Considerations on Representative Government," Mill advocates for representative governance, and "The Subjection of Women," co-authored with Harriet Taylor Mill, champions gender equality. This collection showcases Mill's profound influence on modern political thought, accompanied by an introduction by A. D. Lindsay.
