Abstract
John Stuart Mill was brought up by his father, James Mill, with the advice and assistance of Francis Place and Jeremy Bentham, to be a repository of advanced thinking on all the great subjects of the day – not, as some commentators have thought, to be the political leader of the Philosophical Radicals, but to be something like a tutor in logic and social science to those who were politically active. To an astonishing degree, he fulfilled just this role. He was the leading spirit of the London and Westminster Review in the 1830s, and in his System of Logic (1843), Principles of Political Economy (1848), Liberty (1859), Considerations on Representative Government (1861) and Utilitarianism (1862) he constructed an intellectual system which spanned the horizon from the syllogism to socialism.
