On the Genealogy of Morals
Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900) was a philosopher, critic, composer, and poet best known for his works Thus Spoke Zarathustra, Beyond Good and Evil, Twilight of the Idols, The Antichrist, and Ecce Homo. Michael A. Scarpitti is an independent philosopher. Robert C. Holub is a German professor at Ohio State University.
On the Genealogy of Morals, according to Friedrich Nietzsche, was written to draw attention to his previous works. However, the book does much more than that, elucidating and expanding on the cryptic aphorisms of Beyond Good and Evil, as well as presenting a coherent discussion of morality in a work that is more accessible than much of his previous work.
