    • The terminology in this article matches the terminology in the text of Fried and Jarden, who adopt Weil's nomenclature for varieties. The second edition reference here also contains a subsection providing a dictionary between this nomenclature and the more modern one of schemes.
  • Kunz, Ernst (1985). Introduction to Commutative Algebra and Algebraic Geometry. Birkhäuser. pp. 256. ISBN 0-8176-3065-1.
    • Kunz deals strictly with affine and projective varieties and schemes but to some extent covers the relationship between Weil's definitions for varieties and Grothendieck's definitions for schemes.
  • Mumford, David (1999). The Red Book of Varieties and Schemes. Springer. pp. 198–203. doi:10.1007/b62130. ISBN 3-540-63293-X.
    • Mumford only spends one section of the book on arithmetic concerns like the field of definition, but in it covers in full generality many scheme-theoretic results stated in this article.

Famous quotes containing the word reading:

    Of all the diversions of life, there is none so proper to fill up its empty spaces as the reading of useful and entertaining authors.
    Joseph Addison (1672–1719)

    For 350 years we have been taught that reading maketh a full man, conference a ready man and writing an exact man. Football’s place is to add a patina of character, a deference to the rules and a respect for authority.
    Walter Wellesley (Red)
