John Stuart Mill (1806–1873) was an English philosopher and
member of Parliament. He is widely considered to have been the most
influential British philosopher of the nineteenth century. A strong
proponent of utilitarianism and personal liberty, Mill argued that
individuals should be granted full freedom of opinion and behavior.
Despite his fundamental mistrust of government, Mill served in
Parliament from 1865 to 1868.
