The writings of the 19th-century British philosopher John Stuart Mill contain logical analyses relevant to causal inferences about effects but not specifically to assessing the effects of medical treatments. However, because Mill’s analyses are relevant to the evolution of thinking about how to assess the effects of treatments, some passages from his writings are included in the James Lind Library.
