| Aug 12, 2010 at 2:44 | comment | added | The Mathemagician | I like this book and it's second volume immensely as well.Many experts in AG-like Micheal Artin-strongly advise a stepwise learning of AG from classical machinery like algebraic curves to the "intermediate" formulation by varieties to the modern formulation by schemes.The modern machinery is so abstract,it's very hard to motivate it without this kind of "psuedohistorical" approach.I tend to agree,although I'm far from an expert. | |
| Aug 11, 2010 at 23:59 | comment | added | Thierry Zell | I second that suggestion. It has a lot of good topics and very good exposition. | |

Fixed the Amazon link. I wish there were something similarly canonical and less commercial, but oh well.
