Full Description

From the ancient origins of algebraic geometry in the solutions of polynomial equations, through the triumphs of algebraic geo metry during the last two centuries, intersection theory has played a central role. The aim of this text is to develop the foundations of this theory, and to indicate the range of classical and modern applications. Although a comprehensive history of this vast subject is not attempted, the author points out some of the striking early appearances of the ideas of intersection theory.
