‎The scarce first edition of what is probably Mill's greatest book, an epochal work in logical enquiry, not only for British philosophy, but for modern thought in general. ""Mill's most important work in pure philosophy was his ""System of Logic"", which he began at the age of twenty-four and completed thirteen years later"" (D.S.B. IX:383).By the first quarter of the 19th century, the theory of logic had been almost overlooked in the English speaking world for centuries. Logic was practiced merely as an academic study on traditional lines, with Aristotle as the great master, but with Mill and some of his contemporaries this was about to change, and Mill's theory of terms, propositions, the syllogism, induction etc., greatly affected 19th century English thought. The many years that Mill allowed himself to work on his ""System of Logic"" allowed him to be inspired by a number of important steps that were made towards the development of the theory of logic in order to fulfill his groundbreaking work. Mill's main concern as a philosopher was to overrule the influence of the sceptical philosophers and provide science with a better claim to truth. A main breakthrough in Mill's Logic was thus his analysis of inductive proof, and his originality on this point cannot be denied. ""We have found that all Inference, consequently all Proof, and all discovery of truths not self-evident, consists of inductions, and the interpretation of inductions: that all our knowledge, not intuitive, comes to us exclusively from that source. What Induction is, therefore, and what conditions render it legitimate, cannot but be deemed the main question of the science of logic - the question which includes all others. It is, however, one which professed writers of logic have almost entirely passed over. The generalities of the subject have not been altogether neglected by metaphysicians, but, for want of sufficient acquaintance with the processes by which science has actually succeeded in establishing general truths, their analysis of the inductive operation, even when unexceptionable as to correctness, has not been specific enough to be made the foundation of practical rules, which might be for induction itself what the rules of syllogism are for the interpretation of induction... "" (A System of Logic, Vol. 1, p. 345) . With his demonstrative theory of induction, Mill reduced the conditions of scientific proof to strict rules and scientific tests. He provided the empirical sciences with formulae and criteria that played as important a role to them as the formulae of syllogism had done to arguments that proceeded from general principles. The laws that Mill established are discovered with his famous ""eliminative methods of induction"", which later figured prominently in controversies about scientific method.Mill's Logic came to found a new strand in the theory of logic, logic as incorporated in a general theory of knowledge, where the whole is rendered more precise by its definite reference to the question of proof. According to Mill the ultimate elements of knowledge are subjective entities, however, knowledge does have objective validity. ""Logic alone can never show that the fact A proves the fact B"" but it can point out to what conditions all facts must confirm, in order that they might prove other facts. To decide whether any given fact fulfils these conditions, or whether facts can be found which fulfil them in any given case, belongs, exclusively, to the particular art or science, or to our knowledge of the particular subject."" (Introduction, 3, p. 11). The work underwent several editions, and Mill kept changing it considerably. The first edition is said to have been printed in a small number, less than 1.000.‎

‎First German edition of Mill's ""A System of Logic"", probably his greatest book, an epochal work in logical enquiry, not only for British philosophy, but for modern thought in general. Here in the German version, the title puts emphasis on the main idea of the work, -the inductive logic, which came to found a new strand in the theory of logic throughout Europe. The work was originally published in English in 1843, and it underwent numerous editions. ""Mill's most important work in pure philosophy was his ""System of Logic"", which he began at the age of twenty-four and completed thirteen years later"" (D.S.B.

Spencer et J.S. MIll - Index - John Stuart Mill (20 mai 1806 à Londres - 8 mai 1873 à Avignon, France) est un philosophe, logicien et économiste britannique. Il fut l'un des penseurs libéraux les plus influents du XIXe siècle. Il était un partisan de l'utilitarisme, une théorie éthique préalablement exposée par son parrain Jeremy Bentham, dont Mill proposa sa version personnelle. En économie, il est l'un des derniers représentants de l'école classique. Féministe précurseur, Mill proposa en outre un système de logique qui opère la transition entre l'empirisme du XVIIIe siècle et la logique contemporaine - L'utilitarisme est une doctrine éthique qui prescrit d'agir (ou ne pas agir) de manière à maximiser le bien-être global de l'ensemble des êtres sensibles. L'utilitarisme est donc une forme de conséquentialisme, théorie évaluant une action (ou une règle) uniquement en fonction des conséquences escomptées, qui se distingue de la morale rationnelle et notamment kantienne. - Fils de James Mill, filleul et disciple de Bentham, John Stuart Mill est le successeur immédiat de l'utilitarisme benthamien. Il s'en écarte toutefois en développant un utilitarisme indirect. Là où Bentham identifie welfare et plaisir, Mill définit le welfare comme bonheur. Ce faisant il s'écarte de l'utilitarisme hédoniste et propose un utilitarisme indirect. Le plaisir n'y est plus la fin de la moralité, il ne joue un rôle qu'indirectement, dans la mesure où il contribue au bonheur (du plus grand nombre). On doit aussi à Mill la reconnaissance de la dimension qualitative des plaisirs. Contrairement à Bentham, qui ne hiérarchise pas les plaisirs et s'intéresse uniquement à la quantité de ceux-ci, John Stuart Mill défend une différence de qualité entre les plaisirs. On peut ainsi préférer une quantité moindre d'un plaisir de plus grande qualité à une quantité supérieure d'un plaisir de qualité plus médiocre.

‎John Stuart Mill (1806-1873) est un auteur classique. Son “Système de logique” (1843) ne l'est pas moins. Cet ouvrage n'est pas, malgré son titre, une répétition de la logique d'Aristote, ni un manuel supplémentaire pour une discipline codifiée. En réalité, le Système est l'expression d'une philosophie nouvelle, chaînon indispensable qui relie Hume à Russell. Le “Système de logique” nous offre sans doute une récapitulation de tout ce qu'il faut entendre sous le terme de logique, mais il nous propose aussi une nouvelle théorie des sophismes, des noms propres, de la référence, et surtout de l'induction. C'est chez Mill que l'on trouve l'une des réponses les plus convaincantes au paradoxe de l'induction mis en évidence par Hume, comme l'on y lit la critique, devenue classique, de la déduction comme raisonnement stérile et circulaire. Enfin, et ce n'est pas la moindre contribution de Mill, le “Système de logique” met en place une théorie générale des sciences humaines et de leurs méthodes propres, nous rappelant ainsi que Mill est aussi l'auteur des “Principes d'économie politique”, et le contemporain de Marx. La question qui demeure, après Mill, est sans aucun doute, celle du rapport de l'histoire et de l'empirique en sciences humaines, une question dont le “Système de logique” se veut la réponse. ‎
