Chronicle Critique
I absolutely loved Contacts and Constraints! It completely changed my perspective on Physics Simulation. At first I wasn't sure about Game Engines, but by chapter 3 I was completely hooked. The way the author explains Physics 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 Physics Simulation. What I appreciated most was how the book made Game Development feel so accessible. I'll definitely be rereading this one - there's so much to take in!

Contacts and Constraints offers a compelling take on Physics Simulation, though not without flaws. While the treatment of Computer Graphics is excellent, I found the sections on Numerical Methods less convincing. The author makes some bold claims about Real‑Time Physics that aren't always fully supported. That said, the book's strengths in discussing Game Development more than compensate for any weaknesses. Readers looking for Game Development will find much to appreciate here, even if not every argument lands perfectly. Overall, a valuable addition to the literature on Game Engines, if not the definitive work.

Book club discussion: Contacts and Constraints - chapter 20 thoughts?
Just finished Contacts and Constraints - wow! The part about Game Engines really got me thinking.
I'd add that Contact Resolution is also worth considering in this discussion.
Great point! It reminds me of Game Engines from another book I read.
For me, the real strength was Game Engines, but I see what you mean about Constraint Solvers.
Have you thought about how Collision Detection relates to Computational Mechanics? Adds another layer!
I completely agree! The way the author approaches Collision Detection is brilliant.
I completely agree! The way the author approaches Real‑Time Physics is brilliant.
I think the author could have developed Game Engines more, but overall great.
How does Contacts and Constraints compare to other works about Physics Simulation?
Yes! And don't forget about Dynamics Modeling - that part was amazing.
What did you think about Physics Simulation? That's what really stayed with me.
Has anyone else read Contacts and Constraints? I'd love to discuss Constraint Solvers!
Great point! It reminds me of Game Engines from another book I read.
