Editorial Reviews

Review

Angry Birds Furious Forces serves as a great introduction to basic physics concepts for young ages because they’re presented in a way that kids can relate to as they play their favorite game.” –Tech Savvy Parents

“For those looking for something a bit more introductory in nature, Rhett Allain’s amusing yet educational Angry Birds, Furious Forces: The Physics at Play in the World’s Most Popular Game is an excellent option.” –Scientific American Baker’s Dozen: Best 2013 Books for the Physics Fan

"Einstein once said 'Imagination is more important than knowledge.' National Geographic Angry Birds Furious Forces combines education and fun on every page, helping children develop their imagination about the smallest scales and the most fundamental principles of nature." –Rolf Landua, Head of Education and Public Outreach, CERN

About the Author

Rhett Allain is the writer behind Wired's popular Dot Physics science blog, as well as an associate professor of physics at Southeastern Louisiana University. Among his most popular articles is an explanation of the physics involved in the Angry Birds games. His analysis of the characters, their special abilities, and the different forces at work is a fan favorite. Dr. Allain's interest in the field of physics education research—which explores how kids understand physics—makes him the perfect author to explain physics to a family audience.

Peter Vesterbacka has established several tech businesses, including Slush, MobileMonday, and Lightneer Inc. He has also served as the chief marketing officer and "Mighty Eagle" of Rovio, where he drove the company's marketing and brand strategy, taking the Angry Birds brand to new and unexpected places.
