Although not in every way an easy book,

this book has both great examples

and discussion of ideals, schemes, modules, rings and sheaves.

Projective spaces and algebraic varieties seem to bridge

gaps in the traditional analytic geometry approach to curves.

I suppose that a better coverage of the theory of duals

would have helped me more, but there is a lot of the stuff needed

in this book.The coverage of genus arguments is better than

that of Hilbert Polynomials. The coverage the connection between parametric and implicit curves

is what sold me on this book.
