Local cohomology : an algebraic introduction with geometric applications / M.P. Brodmann, R.Y. Sharp.

"This second edition of a successful graduate text provides a careful and detailed algebraic introduction to Grothendieck's local cohomology theory, including in multi-graded situations, and provides many illustrations of the theory in commutative algebra and in the geometry of quasi-affine and quas...
