He was also the great-uncle of Frances Wright, who lived with him for a time. Mylne is the subject of a biography, Rational Piety and Social Reform in Glasgow (Wipf and Stock, 2015), by Dr Stephen Cowley. Mylne's philosophy was a theistic empiricism and he regarded utility as the primary measure of morality. He found a larger place for reason in mental life than his predecessors at Glasgow Francis Hutcheson and Thomas Reid, of the moral sense and common sense schools respectively. Mylne also lectured on political economy at Glasgow University from a standpoint generally sympathetic to Adam Smith. Politically he was a Whig.
