This expanded edition of John Stuart Mill's Utilitarianism includes the text of his 1868 speech to the British House of Commons defending the use of capital punishment in cases of aggravated murder. The speech is significant both because its topic remains timely and because its arguments illustrate the applicability of the principle of utility to questions of large-scale social policy.

Editör yorumları

Listening to Fleet Cooper perform John Stuart Mill's Utilitarianism is like attending the lecture of a favorite philosophy professor. Though the ideas contained in this audiobook can be dense and complex, Cooper always sounds as though he's speaking conversationally. His meter has a tone evocative of thinking aloud, which cordially draws the listener to the subject matter. In this famous treatise, Mill follows up on Jeremy Bentham's efforts to redefine morality. He objects to Bentham's hedonic calculus and argues that the "Greater Happiness Doctrine" is flawed, for one must take into account the inherent quality of one's pleasure when determining its ethical value.

Fantastic reading of a classic philosophical text! The narrator stresses key terms to and with a tone that sounded very clear, natural and persuasive. I felt like I was getting a charismatic expert lecture on the subject.

A classic in moral philosophy. Reading is fine but pronounces calls the author Mills instead of Mill, lol.

The book is of course a classic of western ethics. The reading is fine but could be improved. Some words mispronounced

Adequate

I hate being preached at... And that's exactly what this book does. For those people that like hearing gospel sermons then you may enjoy this as I think it's intended audience was for Christians that want to compare Christianity and utilitarianism. For the rest of the people that were just looking for unbiased information regarding utilitarianism - like me - I think it's better to give this audio version a miss. I didn't even take any concepts in because the narrator was so awful. I think I will have to read about utilitarianism in a book instead.

Absolutely horrible!
