I'll be honest, I wasn't sure what to expect with Game Physics: A Practical Introduction, but wow! It completely blew me away. The way the author explains games made everything click for me. I've been struggling with games for years, and this book gave me the tools I needed. My favorite part was when they talked about simulation - it reminded me so much of my own experience with physics. I've already recommended it to all my friends!

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 simulation 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 physics. While some may argue that games, the evidence presented is thorough and convincing. This book is essential reading for anyone serious about simulation.

Game Physics: 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 5 sections, each building thoughtfully on the last. Part 5's discussion of simulation 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 more primary sources would strengthen the argument, but this doesn't detract from the overall quality. This will undoubtedly become a standard reference in the field.

While Game Physics: A Practical Introduction makes several valuable points about simulation, 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 physics, this could be a truly outstanding work.
