The phrase "greatest happiness of the greatest number' was
first employed by Mr Bentham in 1822 in his "Codification
Proposal". Every suggestion there put forward is made to turn
upon the requirements of the greatest happiness of the greatest
number' In this work, happiness - utility - pains & pleasures -
are constantly introduced for the purposes of explaining one another -
and the augmentation of the happin felicity of all, - by the
increase of pleasures & the exception from pains - is
the constantly-present theme.
