This book is intended for self-study or as a textbook for graduate students or advanced undergraduates. It presupposes some basic knowledge of point-set topology and a solid foundation in linear algebra. Otherwise, it develops all of the commutative algebra, sheaf-theory and cohomology needed to understand the material. It also presents applications to robotics and other fields.

Dr. Smith is a professor of mathematics at Drexel University in Philadelphia.
This book provides a profound introduction to some of the basicprinciples of both classical and modern algebraic geometry forgraduate students or advanced undergraduates. Assuming only someprevious knowledge of linear algebra and general topology, it alsopresents all the concepts, methods and results from commutativealgebra, sheaf theory and cohomology as far as necessary to developthe foundations of algebraic geometry. These allied mathematicalframeworks are treated separately in four appendices after the maintext, thus making the textbook essentially self-contained, andtherefore particularly suited for self-study by beginners or as anaccompanying course book, respectively.
