Excerpt from Modern Utilitarianism
The present volume contains the main part of a course of Lectures, in the October 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 state ments and explanations of his own treatise. Several topics, however, included in that course, have been omit ted, partly that the work might not swell to an incon venient 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.
