Utilitarianism is a philosophy based on the principle of the greatest happiness for the greatest number of people. Offering utilitarianism as a living tradition, this book begins with a summary of utilitarianism of the 18th and 19th centuries. It also traces the development of the central themes of utilitarian thought over the 20th century.
