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

I'll be honest, I wasn't sure what to expect with Game Collision Detection: A Practical Introduction, but wow! It completely blew me away. The way the author explains collision detection made everything click for me. I've been struggling with collision detection for years, and this book gave me the tools I needed. My favorite part was when they talked about collision detection - it reminded me so much of my own experience with collision detection. I've already recommended it to all my friends!

As a scholar in physics, I found Game Collision Detection: A Practical Introduction to be an exceptional contribution to the field. The author's approach to collision detection is both innovative and rigorous, providing fresh insights that challenge conventional wisdom. Particularly noteworthy is the discussion of collision detection, which offers a compelling framework for understanding physics. While some may argue that physics, the evidence presented is thorough and convincing. This book is essential reading for anyone serious about physics.
