Book Description:
|
Provides an introduction to plane algebraic curves. It emphasizes geometry and intuition, and the presentation is kept concrete. You'll find an abundance of pictures and examples to help develop your intuition about the subject. Highlights of the elementary theory are covered. Proofs, when given, are mostly sketched, some in more detail. References to texts that provide further discussion are included.
