Linear algebraic groups. Reprint of the 1998 2nd ed. (English) Zbl 1202.20048
Modern Birkhäuser Classics. Basel: Birkhäuser (ISBN 978-0-8176-4839-8/pbk). xv, 334 p. (2009).
This is an entirely uncorrected reprint of the second edition reviewed in Zbl 0927.20024 [Progress in Mathematics 9. Boston: Birkhäuser (1998)]. The book is still an ideal entry point for learning about linear algebraic groups.
