This book provides a comprehensive treatment of Gr bner bases theory embedded in an introduction to commutative algebra from a computational point of view. The book explains how the Buchberger algorithm and the theory surrounding it are eminently important both for the mathematical theory and for computational applications. A number of results such as optimized version of the Buchberger algorithm are presented in textbook format for the first time.
