Source Of Knowledge About Tennis.

The authors tell that this book was conceived to be a source of enlightenment. And they really managed it.Using the principles of the physics, of the mechanics, more specifically, they explain with considerable depth, all the movements of the racquets, strings and balls and the technologies involved.The book is wonderful, and perfect for who has already a basic knowledge of physics.For who does not have, the book "Technical Tennis", of the same authors, is a posterior version, much more simplified for this purpose, more adequated for these readers

Great Analysis of Subject

This is an excellent review of every conceivable aspect of tennis and the colliding forces on the ball. It covers frames, spin, deceleration... about the only thing I can think of that was not covered was differences in altitude and high altitude vs. regular tennis balls. Mathematical formulas are provided throughout describing the physical phenomenon that is being explored. I loved the section of the rate of deceleration of the ball, which helped me to understand why my serves seemed to be quite fast, but only registered 95-100 mph at the net. This was good stuff!My review did not earn 5 stars because the book is a little bit dated in terms of current racquet choices, and because it appears that a little bit of material is redundant from chapter to chapter, and I wonder if this could be either justified or eliminated in a subsequent edition.If you have ever wondered if a coach/friend was giving you factual information about your game, read this book!

WOW! What a book.

Can't put it down. If you want to understand your tennis equipment, this is a must-have.

Important book

Gives all the info. I think it was a University of Pennsylvania college text. Not a quick read. But necessary for any tennis pro to really know what is going on. The Seller was perfect.

No analysis of spaghetti racket

Was very disappointed they had almost no information on the spaghetti racket and why it was able to develop so much spin.
