Review of the first edition: '… a careful and detailed algebraic introduction to Grothendieck's local cohomology theory.' L'Enseignement Mathematique, '… the book opens the view towards the beauty of local cohomology, not as an isolated subject but as a tool helpful in commutative algebra and algebraic geometry.' Zentralblatt MATH, Review of the first edition: 'The book is well organised, very nicely written, and reads very well … a very good overview of local cohomology theory.' Newsletter of the European Mathematical Society, Review of the first edition: '… Brodmann and Sharp have produced an excellent book: it is clearly, carefully and enthusiastically written; it covers all important aspects and main uses of the subject; and it gives a thorough and well-rounded appreciation of the topic's geometric and algebraic interrelationships … I am sure that this will be a standard text and reference book for years to come.'

Synopsis
This second edition of a successful graduate text provides a careful and detailed algebraic introduction to Grothendieck's local cohomology theory, including in multi-graded situations, and provides many illustrations of the theory in commutative algebra and in the geometry of quasi-affine and quasi-projective varieties. Topics covered include Serre's Affineness Criterion, the Lichtenbaum-Hartshorne Vanishing Theorem, Grothendieck's Finiteness Theorem and Faltings' Annihilator Theorem, local duality and canonical modules, the Fulton-Hansen Connectedness Theorem for projective varieties, and connections between local cohomology and both reductions of ideals and sheaf cohomology. The book is designed for graduate students who have some experience of basic commutative algebra and homological algebra and also experts in commutative algebra and algebraic geometry. Over 300 exercises are interspersed among the text; these range in difficulty from routine to challenging, and hints are provided for some of the more difficult ones., On its original publication, this algebraic introduction to Grothendieck's local cohomology theory was the first book devoted solely to the topic and it has since become the standard reference for graduate students. This second edition has been thoroughly revised and updated to incorporate recent developments in the field.

    Mistakenly ordered a paperback that I thought was a hardcover, not sellers fault; it was described properly on the listing. Seller still processed a refund the day I went to return the item and let me keep the item anyway. A+++ service. Book arrived quickly in great condition and for a great price. Thank you so much! Amazing seller!

    seller was communicative about my shipment, media mail took a while and tracking wasn't updated frequently, but seller communicated to me very quickly on status. the item came new and wrapped as described, though the packaging in it was packed wasn't sturdy and falling apart when it got to me.
