Game Collision Detection: A Practical Introduction offers a compelling take on physics, though not without flaws. While the treatment of physics is excellent, I found the sections on collision detection less convincing. The author makes some bold claims about Game Programming that aren't always fully supported. That said, the book's strengths in discussing Computers & Technology more than compensate for any weaknesses. Readers looking for collision detection 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 Collision Detection: A Practical Introduction! It completely changed my perspective on physics. At first I wasn't sure about Game Programming, but by chapter 3 I was completely hooked. The way the author explains Programming 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 Game Programming. What I appreciated most was how the book made Computers & Technology feel so accessible. I'll definitely be rereading this one - there's so much to take in!
