The Oxford Philosophical Texts series consists of authoritative teaching editions of canonical texts in the history of philosophy from the ancient world down to modern times. Each volume provides a clear, well laid out text together with a comprehensive introduction by a leading specialist, providing the student with detailed critical guidance on the intellectual context of the work and the structure and philosophical importance of the main arguments. Endnotes are supplied which provide further commentary on the arguments and explain unfamiliar references and terminology, and a full bibliography and index are also included. The series aims to build up a definitive corpus of key texts in the Western philosophical tradition, which will form a reliable and enduring resource for students and teachers alike. John Stuart Mill's Utilitarianism is one of the most important, controversial, and suggestive works of moral philosophy ever written. Mill defends the view that all human action should produce the greatest happiness overall, and that happiness itself is to be understood as consisting in higher and lower pleasures. This volume uses the 1871 edition of the text, the last to be published in Mill's lifetime. The text is preceded by a comprehensive introduction assessing Mill's philosophy and the alternatives to utilitarianism, and discussing some of the specific issues Mill raises in Utilitarianism. This volume also includes an analysis of the text, substantial endnotes, suggestions for further reading, and a full bibliography.

评分功利主义最为一种真正的现代思想，它之所以对当代的人类思想具有更大的影响，不仅是因为其伦理学的基本观点及其简单，并且符合常人的理性：合乎道德的行为或者制度应到能够促进"最大多数人的最大幸福"，更主要的是因为，通过"最大多数人的最大幸福"这一概念的不同表述，如"社会...
评分通过对穆勒《功利主义》论证内容的整理，本文试图发现穆勒之功利主义学说试图回应的一些伦理学上的重要问题，从而更好地认识穆勒的功利主义思想在伦理学脉络下的地位。 本文认为，穆勒试图回应的基本问题，亦是伦理学中的最基本命题：“什么是善？”而同时，穆勒还需要回应两个...
