Mill's Autobiography, Part 6
from MakingHistory Hosted by Dan Allosso
My reading of the first half of Chapter 3, in which John Stuart Mill describes the end of his education with his father and the beginning of his “self-education”. I particularly liked how he described writing abstracts as an exercise in “compelling precision” and also how he benefitted from pushing himself a bit beyond his capacity. This is a public episode.
