Utilitarianism and Consequentialism: The Ethics of Bentham and Mill by Andrew Conley provides a comprehensive examination of two of the most influential ethical theories in modern philosophy: utilitarianism and consequentialism. The book traces the development of these theories from their origins in the work of Jeremy Bentham, who established utilitarianism as a moral framework grounded in the maximization of happiness, to the more refined and nuanced version proposed by John Stuart Mill, who expanded upon Bentham's ideas while integrating concerns for individual rights and justice. Through a detailed analysis of their writings and philosophical contributions, Conley explores the strengths and limitations of utilitarianism and its adaptation to contemporary moral dilemmas. The book critically engages with key debates, including the conflict between utilitarian principles and individual rights, the challenges of measuring happiness, and the application of these ideas to modern ethical issues such as public policy, environmental justice, and global inequality. Ultimately, Utilitarianism and Consequentialism offers a clear and insightful exploration of these theories, their historical context, and their lasting impact on both philosophy and practical ethics.
