"This is an excellent introduction to the basics of Grothendieck's theory of schemes; the very best first reading about the subject that I am aware of. I would heartily recommend every grad student who wants to study algebraic geometry to read it prior to reading more advanced textbooks."- Alexander Beilinson
Reviews / Votes
"This slim volume is still a valuable introduction to schemes and nicely complements the textbooks on this topic which have appeared in the meantime." (C. Baxa, Monatshefte für Mathematik, Vol. 201 (4), August, 2023)
"Throughout the text there are many instructive examples, remarks, and clarifying footnotes. The style of exposition is rather concise, very elegant, extremely lucid and enlightening, versatile, and - despite its venerable age of fifty years - absolutely modern and timely. . an excellent source for students, instructors, and mathematical physicists. No doubt, with this textbook, the mathematical community has another general standard reference in algebraic geometry at its disposal." (Werner Kleinert, zbMATH 1390.14002, 2018)

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
