Его величайший интерпретатор Джон Стюарт Милль (1806-73) стремился очеловечить прагматический утилитаризм Бентама, уравновесив требования разума и воображения, индивидуальности и социального благополучия в таких эссе, как "Бентам", "Кольридж" и, прежде всего, "Утилитаризм". Работы Бентама и Милля, собранные в книге "Утилитаризм и другие эссе", показывают создание и развитие системы этики, которая оказала ключевое влияние на моральную философию и законодательную политику
