Jeremy Bentham was a British philosopher, jurist, social reformer and the founder of modern utilitarianism. He is in the row with the greatest thinkers Adam Smith, John Stuart Mill, John Keynes, John Locke, and Alfred Marshall. Their thoughts had strong influence on building the foundation of the United States and its endeavor of open society.

Jeremy Bentham invented the axiom of the greatest happiness of the greatest number. His writings emphasised the pursuit of happiness and freedom and became popular in the new republics of America and the other counties.
Jeremy Bentham published Rationale of Judicial Evidence in 1827 under the help by John Stuart Mill, son of his best friend James Mill. The book is one of Bentham's longest works, running to ten volumes that each one containing several hundred pages. In the book, he provided a comprehensive examination of the different types of evidence used in civil and criminal justice, and the different methods of extracting it. He argued in the book that no evidence should be excluded unless the delay and expense involved in extracting it was likely to outweigh the anticipated value.

Jeremy Bentham’s work produced great influence on utilitarianism, philosophy, jurist, and economics. His view became widely recognised as the foremost philosophical voice of political radicalism and his influence has been felt in nearly every field of the humanities and social sciences.

This book is one of the most important ones about justice and Judicial Evidence by Jeremy Bentham, one of the greatest thinkers of modern economics and philosophy on the planet.
