“The prerequisites to read this book are undergraduate analysis, algebra and topology. The proofs of all needed more advanced results of topology or algebra are given. The book is mainly self-contained; some proofs with all the necessary steps are proposed as exercises. … Each chapter ends with a set of exercises.” (Jean-Marc Drézet's, Mathematical Reviews, June, 2022)“The present book is a very solid, and different than usual (or traditional), introduction to algebraic geometry that we can find on the market. … I can honestly recommend this item as a main reference for (advanced) courses devoted to algebraic geometry, and for extended courses devoted to introduction to algebraic geometry – this claim is based on the fact that the book is self-contained on the level of commutative algebra and due to this reason provides a coherent narration.” (Piotr Pokora, zbMATH 1471.14003, 2021)
