Utilitarianism
by John Stuart Mill
by John Stuart Mill
Utilitarianism is a short but dense text to get through. Unlike a lot of philosophical works, this one is incredibly readable. I was looking for a good jumping off point for an interesting debate on actions and morality and this is it. I'm not sure that I agree with Mill and utilitarian thought as a whole, but he makes a compelling argument for it here and I put the book down with plenty to think about and meditate on, so as a philosophical text, I believe Mill achieved his goal.
