On Liberty
description On Liberty Overview
John Stuart Mills 'On Liberty' is the definitive defense of individual freedom against the tyranny of the majority. He argues that the only purpose for which power can be rightfully exercised over any member of a civilized community, against his will, is to prevent harm to others. This book is a cornerstone of liberal thought and remains highly relevant in discussions about free speech, privacy, and personal autonomy. It is clear, persuasive, and essential for anyone interested in the balance between individual rights and social order.
