About this title

Synopsis:

Algebraic geometry is the study of systems of polynomial equations or more variables, asking such questions as: Does the system have finitely many solutions, and if so how can one find them? And if there are infinitely many solutions, how can they be described and manipulated?

Review:

"I consider the book to be wonderful...The exposition is very clear, there are many helpful pictures, and there are a great many instructive exercises, some quite challenging...offers the heart and soul of modern commutative and algebraic geometry." -The American Mathematical Monthly
