As a scholar in simulation, I found Game Physics: A Practical Introduction to be an exceptional contribution to the field. The author's approach to physics is both innovative and rigorous, providing fresh insights that challenge conventional wisdom. Particularly noteworthy is the discussion of games, which offers a compelling framework for understanding simulation. While some may argue that physics, the evidence presented is thorough and convincing. This book is essential reading for anyone serious about simulation.

While Game Physics: A Practical Introduction makes several valuable points about physics, I found some aspects problematic. The author's treatment of physics seems oversimplified, particularly when compared to simulation. That said, the sections on simulation are genuinely insightful and make the book worth reading despite its flaws. With some refinement in games, this could be a truly outstanding work.
