In his Utilitarianism, John Stuart Mill presents his readers with two very different visions of the world--two fictions, each endowed with selectively featured pasts, presents, and futures. These are populated by a personification of Utilitarianism itself and partly shaped by conflicting analogies that are sometimes obviously contrived but more often appear to have been used unconsciously. In short, Mill's Utilitarianism is the product not only of a calculated rhetoric but also of a mind persuaded by its own partial and conflicting images of reality.
