These papers on key issues in intellectual history derive from
those delivered at a conference held at the University of Toronto
in May 1973 to honour the bicentenary of James Mill's birth and the
centenary of John Stuart Mill's death. Nine authorities -- J.H.
Burns, Karl W. Britton, J.B. Schneewind, George J. Stigler, Samuel
Hollander, L.S. Feuer, Joseph Hamburger, Edward Alexander, and John
M. Robson -- were invited to discuss what they took to be
significant aspects of the thought of the two Mills. While history,
philosophy, economics, social science, and the history of thought
were the focal points for the conference, the contributors were
free to choose their own topics and approaches. One of the most
striking aspects of Mill scholarship that emerges in this volume is
the applicability of their ideas to modern problems. These papers
are not final assessments; they are individual and independent
contributions to Mill studies that clearly show the vitality of
both Mill's thought and the certainty that it will continue to
influence and change the ways in which we think about the human
condition.
