What happens when society decides it knows what's best for you? In On Liberty, John Stuart Mill delivers a powerful exploration of freedom, authority, and individuality. With sharp reasoning and vivid examples, he challenges the dangers of unchecked government control and the tyranny of the majority that silences dissent. For Mill, individuality is the driving force of progress, and the only justifiable limit to liberty is to prevent harm to others. His impassioned defense of free speech, independent thought, and personal autonomy remains one of the most compelling arguments for human freedom ever written.

Few works have shaped modern democracy as profoundly as On Liberty. Published in 1859, it laid the foundation for civil liberties, personal autonomy, and protections against conformity. Mill's bold critique of oppressive traditions and majority rule continues to influence debates on human rights, political theory, and social justice. Its enduring message-that individuality must be protected for society to thrive-remains as urgent and relevant today as it was more than a century ago.
