Book Description

July 26, 2000 3540666419 978-3540666417 1
This is an English translation of the now classic "Algbre Locale - Multiplicits" originally published by Springer as LNM 11. It gives a short account of the main theorems of commutative algebra, with emphasis on modules, homological methods and intersection multiplicities. Many modifications to the original French text have been made for this English edition, making the text easier to read, without changing its intended informal character.

This review is from: Local Algebra (Springer Monographs in Mathematics) (Hardcover)
This book is crystal clear and reads like a bedtime story. I wish I had it when I took commutative algebra.
