M'Creery, [Robert Heward], 8vo, 1822-1830. *** A variant of the second issue with the 1822 M'Creery title page and list of Bentham's publications, also containing two supplements, the first from 77-106pp, 2 ff. list of publications, then the second supplement 107-118pp, [1830], lacking the title page. A scarce example of this work in which Bentham proposes the revision of juridical ideas under the principle of utility; the two supplements being largely responses to the proposals.
