Mar 27, 2010 at 22:01 comment added The Mathemagician Artin is going to be rough going for undergraduates who are not well versed in basic geometry and linear algebra,fpqc.But you can't help but love the infectious passion with which Artin weaves his craft in front of the students.He loves algebra and he's trying to prosyletize his students to it. A book with a similar geometric bent,level and also by a master that students will probably find easier going is E.B.Vinberg's A COURSE IN ALGEBRA. But Artin's book is very good and it's good news for all of us that Artin is revising it.
