In the 1970s, derived categories were still quite new, and known to only a few
algebraic geometers, and so I avoided using them. In some places this worked
out quite well, for example, contrary to statements in the literature they are
not really needed for the Lefschetz trace formula with coefficients in
I also regret treating Lefschetz pencils only in the case of fiber dimension 1. Apart from using derived categories and including Lefschetz pencils with arbitrary fiber dimension, I plan to keep the book much as before, but with the statements of the main theorems updated to take account of later work. Whether the new version will ever be completed, only time will tell. |
Following is the blurb for Elliptic Curves that was on Amazon, and would still be, but for the incompetence of the people at BookSurge/CreateSpace/Amazon/Kindle Direct Publishing.
This book uses the beautiful theory of elliptic curves to introduce the reader to some of the deeper aspects of number theory. It assumes only a knowledge of the basic algebra, complex analysis, and topology usually taught in advanced undergraduate or first-year graduate courses.
Reviews
Indeed, the book is affordable (in fact, the most affordable of all references on the subject), but also a high quality work and a complete introduction to the rich theory of the arithmetic of elliptic curves, with numerous examples and exercises for the reader, many interesting remarks and an updated bibliography.
Mathematical Reviews, Álvaro Lozano-Robledo
J. S. Milne's lecture notes on elliptic curves are already well-known … The book under review is a rewritten version of just these famous lecture notes from 1996, which appear here as a compact and inexpensive paperback that is now available worldwide.

Comments on Print on Demand publishing
In 2006, I rewrote my course notes and made them available as a paperback (the first edition of this work). For this second edition, I have rewritten and updated the notes once again, while retaining most of the numbering from the first edition.
Beyond its intrinsic interest, the study of elliptic curves makes an excellent introduction to some of the deeper aspects of current research in number theory. In the book, I have attempted to place the theory of elliptic curves in this wider context.
In reviewing the theory of elliptic curves, I have been struck by how much of it originated with calculations: those of Ramanujan, which suggested Hecke operators and the (generalized) Ramanujan conjecture; those of Sato, which suggested the Sato-Tate conjecture in its general forms; those of Selmer, which suggested the Cassels-Tate duality theorem; those of Birch and Stephens, which suggested the Gross-Zagier formula; and, of course, those of Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer, which suggested their conjecture and its generalizations.
