Review: Un très bon livre pour les géomètres. Qualité très bien, lisible. C’est un peu cher, mais vu que c’est pour une utilisation à vie, je pense que ça mérite. Review: This might be one of the most difficult books on the subject matter, and is definitely the most difficult book I read, but if you put in the hard work into it, do all the exercises, you will learn a lot from it. One really cannot blame Hartshorne for the difficulty of this book. Algebraic geometry is a hard topic that requires a large list of prerequistes. If you want to learn algebraic geometry on the level of actual mathematicians then there is no way around the topics in this book. Hartshorne made it possible for the rest of the mathematical community to actually learn this topic, which before him was highly inaccessible. The disadvantage is that much motivation is non-existent. However, if you learn the vocabulary and basic theorems of this topic, then you can try to look for motivations else where. Perhaps, this is a backwarks way of learning the subject but it is very direct and to the point. The advantage is that this book slaps you over the face with all the technical stuff. It is not wordy and to the point. The exercises are helpful and I learned way more from them than reading the actual text. Perhaps a possible compromise to Hartshorne is to learn AG from other sources and then do all of his exercises. I do wish that Hartshorne did a better job on Chapter 1. It is not necessary for the remainder of the text but it helps develop intuition. A problem with Hartshorne's approach is that he defines varieties living in some affine space. This is a bit annoying, he should have defined them with reference to an ambient space (just like the definition of "manifolds" in differential geometry, no reference to an ambient space). I think this would have made the introduction of sheaves more natural. Just a disclaimer. Make sure your basic algebra is solid, especially commutative algebra, and be well-versed in point-set topology. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #291,417 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #208 in Geometry & Topology #24,676 in Higher & Continuing Education Textbooks | | Customer reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (104) | | Dimensions | 15.6 x 2.87 x 23.39 cm | | Edition | 1st ed. 1977.
