Algebraic Geometry and Arithmetic Curves
 Very good exposition: Liu's book has two distinct parts to it. The first 7 chapters combine to give a wonderful exposition of the language of schemes; the other chapters are of a specialised nature and concentrate on arithmetic curves. I will talk about [... more]

Algebraic Geometry
Terrific, if you want it.: This book hardly needs a review on Amazon, because if you have as much math background as it needs, then you must already know it is indispensible for learning about schemes in algebraic geometry. The book is clear, concise, [... more]
