"All notions introduced are discussed thoroughly, proofs are lucid and elegant, and the hypotheses made and their relevance are clear throughout the text. ... The reader comes away from the text with a thorough understanding of the internal motivations of the theory of formal and rigid spaces. The bookis an extremely readable introduction to its subject, as well as to the techniques of modern geometry in general." (Jeroen Sijsling, zbMATH 1314.14002, 2015)
