Focusing on the ethical framework of utilitarianism, the book presents John Stuart Mill's argument that actions are deemed right if they promote happiness and wrong if they cause pain. Mill defines happiness as pleasure and the absence of pain, positioning utilitarianism as a moral standard aimed at maximizing the well-being of the majority. His influential ideas are pivotal for understanding contemporary Progressivist thought. This edition features a new design and typesetting for enhanced readability.
