An introduction to algebraic geometry and algebraic groups

An accessible text introducing algebraic geometry and algebraic groups advanced undergraduate and early graduate level, this book develops e language of algebraic geometry from scratch and uses it to set up the theory of affine algebraic geometries from first principles. This text forms the latest in the Oxford Graduate Texts in Mathematics series which publishes textbooks suitable for graduate students in mathematics and its applications. The level of books ranges from some suitable advanced undergraduate courses, to others of interest to research workers. The emphasis is on texts of high mathematical quality in active as, particularly areas that are not well represented in the literature present.
