More about the book

The book presents Jeremy Bentham's groundbreaking ideas on jurisprudence, emphasizing that laws should serve societal needs rather than uphold existing norms. It argues that human behavior is driven by the pursuit of pleasure and the avoidance of pain, positioning the principle of "the greatest happiness of the greatest number" as the cornerstone of ethics and legal systems. Bentham's work seeks to reformulate the relationship between morality and legislation, advocating for a utilitarian approach to lawmaking.
