Warning: Slightly Off-Topic
Can anyone suggest a book (or two) that would serve as a good introduction to consequentialism for the non-philosophy major?
I suppose good places to start would be Wikipedia and the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy, but let's say I want something longer form yet not too arcane.
In addition, there's the work of Jeremy Bentham (1748-1832), An Introduction to the Principles of Morals and Legislation. It's even available as an audio book through Librivox.
John Stuart Mill is probably easier to read.
