I absolutely loved Computational Game Dynamics: Principles & Practice! It completely changed my perspective on simulation. At first I wasn't sure about dynamics, but by chapter 3 I was completely hooked. The way the author explains simulation 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 dynamics. 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!

★★★★☆

Computational Game Dynamics: Principles & Practice offers a compelling take on simulation, though not without flaws. While the treatment of Books is excellent, I found the sections on Game Programming 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 Books more than compensate for any weaknesses. Readers looking for dynamics 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.
