Overview
From the Preface: "We have preferred to write a self-contained book which could be used in a basic graduate course of modern algebra. It is also with an eye to the student that we have tried to give full and detailed explanations in the proofs... We have also tried, this time with an eye to both the student and the mature mathematician, to give a many-sided treatment of our topics, not hesitating to offer several proofs of one and the same result when we thought that something might be learned, as to methods, from each of the proofs."The book, Commutative Algebra I (Graduate Texts in Mathematics #28) [Bulk, Wholesale, Quantity] ISBN#9780387900896 in Hardcover by Oscar Zariski, Pierre Samuel may be ordered in bulk quantities.
