Publisher's Summary

Mill's autobiography deals primarily with the life of the mind - but it is a mind which ranks as one of the most remarkable and significant of the nineteenth century. The book memorably depicts the emergence of a brilliant child prodigy, the product of an extraordinary education which both hastened his development and brought him to the brink of suicide by the age of 21. Illumined with equal clarity is the story of John Stuart Mill's renewed commitment to life, and of the further conflicts which marked his long evolution toward maturity as a major philosopher and social thinker.

Superb in its dispassionate objectivity, the Autobiography stands as a work of enduring relevance and a final testament to a rare and luminous intelligence.

Missing portions

I probably should have guessed from the artwork this would be a sketchy book. One of the best and most astutely written books I’ve ever read. Unfortunately this version of the audiobook has 3 sections where the audio jumps and it is clear some part is missing. I cannot tell how much was skipped but it did not detract from the content much at all.
