Présentation de l'éditeur
The present volume contains the main part of a course of Lectures, in theO ctober Term of last year, on Modern Utilitarianism. The subject is viewed historically, in connection with the views of Paley and Bentham, the criticisms of Mr Mill on those writers, and the statements and explanations of his own treatise. Several topics, however, included in that course, have been omitted, partly that the work might not swell to an inconvenient size; but also because they seemed to require a fuller treatment than could be given in the bounds of a single lecture, or one less controversial in form than those in this volume have inevitably assumed. Various engagements, while preparing this work for the press, have hindered the treatment of the subject from being so complete and full as I should have desired it to be.
