Mill,  Professor Habibi argues that the persistent, dominant theme of Mill's  life and work was his passionate belief in human improvement and  progress. Several Mill scholars recognize this; however, numerous  writers overlook his 'growth ethic', and this has led to  misunderstandings about his value system. This study defines and  establishes the importance of Mill's growth ethic and clears up  misinterpretations surrounding his notions of higher and lower  pleasures, positive and negative freedom, the status of children, the  legitimacy of authority, and support for British colonialism. Drawing  from the entire corpus of Mill's writings, as well as the extensive  secondary literature, Habibi has written the most focused, sustained  analysis of Mill's grand, leading principle.\u003cbr\u003e  This book will be useful to college students in philosophy and  intellectual history as well as specialists in these fields.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2001-02-28\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792368540\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-017-2010-6\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 234cm x156cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 294\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44481645838476,"sku":"9780792368540","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792368540.jpg?v=1772813523","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9780792368540","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
