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

Game Inverse Kinematics: A Practical Introduction is a comprehensive exploration of simulation that manages to be both accessible to newcomers and valuable to experts. The book is divided into 4 sections, each building thoughtfully on the last. Part 1's discussion of kinematics is particularly strong, with clear examples and practical applications. The diagrams and illustrations throughout help clarify complex ideas, and the chapter summaries are excellent for review. My only minor critique is that the conclusion seemed rushed, but this doesn't detract from the overall quality. This will undoubtedly become a standard reference in the field.
