★★★★☆

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

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