| Sep 2, 2015 at 18:51 | comment | added | Philippe Gaucher | @LorenoHeer For people having a limited understanding of category theory, I can suggest too once again (I already did in another thread) Tom Leinster's book "Basic Category Theory", Cambridge Studies in Advanced Mathematics. | |
| Sep 2, 2015 at 18:14 | comment | added | Steven Gubkin | @PhilippeGaucher I think the concentration on the logic side of things makes this perhaps less than ideal for the student of algebraic geometry. It is a great book, but it does not even touch on cohomology of sheaves, for instance. Not sure of a good replacement book though. | |

| Sep 2, 2015 at 12:57 | comment | added | Loreno Heer | If you have only limited understanding of category theory just yet, "Sheaves ..." is quite a tough book to start with. I would suggest also reading "Categories for the working mathematician" by Saunders Mac Lane or use it as a companion book. | |
| Sep 2, 2015 at 8:22 | comment | added | Philippe Gaucher | MacLane and Moerdijk : "Sheaves in Geometry and Logic, a first introduction to topos theory." Springer Verlag. The nLab website is an important source of information : ncatlab.org/nlab/show/Sheaves+in+Geometry+and+Logic. | |
