About the Book
Introduction to Commutative Algebra by Atiyah offers a concise yet rigorous introduction to commutative algebra, designed primarily for third-year undergraduate students who have completed a basic course in general algebra. The book grew out of a series of lectures given at Oxford University and aims to present a rapid, focused treatment of the subject.
The book does not aim to replace more comprehensive works, such as Zariski-Samuel or Bourbaki, but rather concentrates on specific core topics, providing a more accessible and manageable introduction. While some areas, such as field theory, are not discussed, the book offers a broader treatment than other introductory texts like Northcott.
Key Features:
-
Focused Approach: Emphasizes the concepts of modules and localization, which are part of the modern approach to commutative algebra.
-
Not a Substitute for Extensive Texts: It is designed as a starting point for students looking to build a foundation in the subject rather than as a replacement for more detailed treatises.
-
Target Audience: Primarily aimed at students who have completed basic algebra courses but not yet tackled more advanced texts in commutative algebra.
This book serves as a perfect bridge for students looking to transition from elementary algebra to the more sophisticated aspects of commutative algebra.
