Game Physics: A Practical Introduction
This is the kind of technical book that makes you smarter with every page. I appreciated the inclusion of real-world case studies that helped ground the theory in practical examples. The pacing was excellent; I never felt overwhelmed by jargon or bogged down by unnecessary detail.
The exercises at the end of each chapter reinforce learning and encourage hands-on experimentation. The way the author weaves personal anecdotes into the broader narrative adds a layer of authenticity and relatability. The practical applications discussed in the later chapters have already proven useful in my professional work.
