RSA Thursday: Liberty, Character and Happiness: John Stuart Mill in the 21st Century: Richard Reeves November 29, 2007

"We are delighted to welcome writer and commentator Richard Reeves, to discuss his new book John Stuart Mill – Victorian Firebrand, the first definitive biography of Britain's greatest public intellectual.
 
Reeves reveals Mill as a passionate man of action: a philosopher, radical MP and reformer, whose life was spent in the pursuit of truth and liberty for all; a man who profoundly shaped Victorian society and continues to illuminate our own."
 
Chaired by Georgios Varouxakis, Reader in History of Political Thought, Queen Mary, University of London.
