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

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 simulation, which offers a compelling framework for understanding games. While some may argue that physics, 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 8 sections, each building thoughtfully on the last. Part 3'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 the pacing could be better, but this doesn't detract from the overall quality. This will undoubtedly become a standard reference in the field.
