Reviews

"""For those who are inclined to discount John Stuart Mill as an erratic and eclectic thinker, Economic justice and liberty should be required reading. The book belongs to a steadily growing class of scholarly works which interpret Mill with sympathy and a solid cognizanc of his writings, and which confirm J. O. Urmson’s judgement that if one studies his work diligently, 'an essentially consistent thesis can be discovered which is very superior to that usually attributed to Mill and immune to the common run of criticisms' (Urmson 1953, 33). The author of this highly readable book, Huei-chun Su, goes even further than Urmson.""- Michael Schefczuk, Leuphana University Lüneburg"
