Looked upon in his day as the philosopher of the Utilitarians,
James Mill was an independent thinker centrally concerned with
problems of education. Professor Burston's study places Mill's
Essay on Education, his contribution to the Encyclopaedia
Britannica of the day, in its historical context and examines the
views expressed in this and in other private and published
writings, discussing in detail how Mill's view of ethics,
psychology and theory of knowledge related to his theory of
education, his practical experience as a teacher (especially of his
own children) and to his philosophical position as a whole. This
work will be of value to all interested in the interrelations of
history, philosophy and education in the early nineteenth century.
