Summary: Interesting Read - Basic Tennis Advice
Comment: This book is fun to read if you can appreciate a scientific approach (graphs & formulae). This book takes some basic tennis advice used by instructors and scientifically proves them. It changed my perspecctive on certain aspects of the game. The advice that results from Brody's analysis is similar to what you'd get from a beginner's tennis class. However, the approach is interesting and insightful.

Rating: 5
Summary: Finally, tennis facts.
Comment: There is so much misinformation in tennis! This book sorts through all the hype and confusion and gives true information on what makes a tennis ball go. From rackets to strings to strokes, this book shows what is important and what is not. For instance, why is it so hard to hit a hard shot from mid-court? Why do shots down the line go out so much? Should I serve hard or slow? How can I become more consistent at serving and groundstrokes? Should I crowd the net or stay back and get ready for a lob?
This book finally gives answers to these perplexing questions.

Rating: 4
Summary: A good resource
Comment: This book covers just about anything a budding physicist could wish to know. Although it came across as a bit technical, I enjoyed discovering the whys and hows of a sport that I've always loved. Basically, this is the only good source on such a specific subject that exists in any library.
