Even the scattered thoughts of a great thinker are worth pondering, and here are the "miscellaneous productions" of John Stuart Mill, one of the foremost intellectuals of the late 19th century. Collected by the author and first published in book form in 1867, these are writings originally appearing in periodicals that Mill considered "desirable to preserve." Volume II of this three-volume set includes the essays: "M. de Tocqueville on Democracy in America" "Michelet's History of France" "The Claims of Labour" "Early Grecian History and Legend" "Vindication of the French Revolution of February 1848" "Enfranchisement of Women" and others. English philosopher and politician JOHN STUART MILL (1806-1873) served as an administrator in the East Indian Company from 1823 to 1858, and as a member of parliament from 1865 to 1868. Among his essays on a wide range of political and social thought are Principles of Political Economy (1848), Considerations on Representative Government (1861), and The Subjection of Women (1869).
