Human history would be noting but a record of stupidity save for the cunning contributions of the weak.

The Genealogy of Morals is a collection of essays by Friedrich Nietzsche, one of the most interesting philosophers of the 19th century. His three interrelated treatises expand and follow through on concepts Nietzsche sketched out in Beyond Good and Evil. Important works on ethics and politics, the essays contain the author's thoughts on the origin of our moral prejudices. It was written in response to his friend Paul Réeacute;e's genealogical hypothesis of morality put forth in his work The Origin of the Moral Sensations.

Finding Rée's theory unsatisfactory, Nietzsche calls for an examination of moral values themselves.

The three essays are among Nietzsche's most sustained, cohesive and important works as they offer an interpretation and history of ethics which raises profoundly disquieting issues about the violence of both.
