Abstract

This Routledge Philosophy GuideBook introduces John Stuart Mill and one of his major works, _On Liberty_. We see that in _On Liberty_ Mill outlines the importance of moral rights, respect for rule of law, and individuality. Written with students in mind, Jonathan Riley gracefully eases the reader into Mill's work, life, and philosophy. An ideal read for those coming to Mill for the first time, and for anyone with an interest in political philosophy.
