May 30, 2017 at 21:02 | comment | added | Todd Trimble | @DanFlath Welcome to MO, Professor Flath. I converted your answer to a comment; we are pretty strict around here about reserving answer boxes for responses that directly answer the question. One you gain 50 points of "reputation", you can leave comments on any post. | |
May 30, 2017 at 20:19 | comment | added | Dan Flath | I remember my advisor, John Tate, telling me back in the 1970s that Lie Algebras was the perfect topic of a series of Bourbaki books, unlike algebraic geometry which is far too vast. | |
