Igor R. Shafarevich 
Basic Algebraic Geometry 2 [PDF ebook] 
Schemes and Complex Manifolds

The second volume of Shafarevich’s introductory book on algebraic varieties and complex manifolds. As with Volume 1, the author has revised the text and added new material, e.g. as a section on real algebraic curves. Although the material is more advanced than in Volume 1 the algebraic apparatus is kept to a minimum, making the book accessible to non-specialists. It can be read independently of Volume 1 and is suitable for beginning graduate students in mathematics as well as those in theoretical physics.
