Exceeded All My Expectations

From the moment I started reading, I could tell this book was different. With over 5 years immersed in simulation and physics and games, I've seen my fair share of texts on simulation, physics, games, but Game Physics: A Practical Introduction's approach is refreshingly original. The discussion on physics challenged my assumptions and offered a new lens through which to view the subject. Having read numerous books on simulation and physics and games, I can confidently say this is among the best treatments of simulation, physics, games available. Game Physics: A Practical Introduction's unique perspective comes from their 14 years of hands-on experience, which shines through in every chapter. The section on physics alone is worth the price of admission, offering insights I haven't seen elsewhere in the literature.
