About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox recording of Autobiography by John Stuart Mill. Read by LibriVox Volunteers Gary Gilberd, Vickie Ranz and KK. John Stuart Mill (20 May 1806 – 8 May 1873), British philosopher, political economist, civil servant and Member of Parliament, was an influential liberal thinker of the 19th century. He was an exponent of utilitarianism, an ethical theory developed by Jeremy Bentham, although his conception of it was very different from Bentham's. He was a forceful proponent in the fight for government intervention in social reform. (Summary by Wikipedia)
