| Jan 28, 2014 at 20:12 | comment | added | Mariano Suárez-Álvarez | @RaphaelAlbrecht, you will agree that there has been exactly one Grothendieck in a long, long, looooong time. | |

| Jan 27, 2014 at 22:23 | comment | added | Raphael Albrecht | @MarianoSuárez-Alvarez ... But contrast it with the incredibly brief time it took Grothendieck to get up to speed in Algebra (both commutative and highly not so) - in less than ten years before he started working on Algebraic Geometry he started publishing his landscape-changing FGAs, EGAs and SGAs ... and the way he went about might actually be telling: I guess about 95% of what Kunz might be referring to will have been well-known to Grothendieck and the key way to his efficiency seems to be collaboration with students and seminars - so let's take this ++ive example and aim for the stars! | |
| Jan 27, 2014 at 22:11 | comment | added | Raphael Albrecht | @Mariano sounds like a very student-friendly pace of lecturing reminiscent of German universities [btw experienced 1st hand by the author of this comment - the "basic" algebra course at my alma mater lasted occasionally for 14 semesters (!)] | |

| Feb 1, 2011 at 20:59 | comment | added | user1073 | Pierre Samuel's "Algebraic Theory of Numbers" gives a very elegant introduction to algebraic number theory. It doesn't cover as much material as many of the books mentioned here, but has the advantages of being only 100 pages or so and being published by dover (so that it costs only a few dollars). Reading this would certainly prepare you well for some of the more advanced books that require more of a commitment to go through. | |

| Jan 28, 2010 at 21:53 | comment | added | Mariano Suárez-Álvarez | Ersnt Kunz starts the forword to his Introduction to Commutative Algebra and Algebraic Geometry with: «It has been estimated that, at the present state of our knowledge, one could give a 200 semester course on commutative algebra and algebraic geometry without ever repeating himself.» His subject is not unique in that respect! | |
