★★★★☆

Game Physics: A Practical Introduction offers a compelling take on simulation, though not without flaws. While the treatment of Computers & Technology is excellent, I found the sections on games less convincing. The author makes some bold claims about physics that aren't always fully supported. That said, the book's strengths in discussing games more than compensate for any weaknesses. Readers looking for simulation will find much to appreciate here, even if not every argument lands perfectly. Overall, a valuable addition to the literature on physics, if not the definitive work.

I absolutely loved Game Physics: A Practical Introduction! It completely changed my perspective on simulation. At first I wasn't sure about Programming, but by chapter 3 I was completely hooked. The way the author explains games is so clear and relatable - it's like they're talking directly to you. I've already recommended this to all my friends who are interested in simulation. What I appreciated most was how the book made simulation feel so accessible. I'll definitely be rereading this one - there's so much to take in!
