In his Introduction John Gray describes these essays as applications of Mill's doctrine of the Art of Life, as set out in A System of Logic. Using the resources of recent scholarship, he shows Mill's work to be far richer and subtler than traditional interpretations allow. 709075 1989 On Liberty and Other Essays (Oxford World's Classics) total:382|5:99|4:133|3:115|2:31|1:4| 382 1438 561 29 3 0 false false Sat Feb 14 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Sun Feb 01 10:48:12 -0800 2009 Sat Feb 14 20:04:09 -0800 2009
