What if Einstein played rugby? Surely Time Magazine's "Man of the
Century" might offer useful tips and techniques to defeat the
opposition? In this book, the world of physics joins forces with
the world of rugby, to show you how to tackle harder, pass safer,
run faster, and scrum better - all the things you need to do to
win. Blending simple physics, the kind you meet in high school,
with anecdotes and stories from the world of rugby, Trevor
Lipscombe takes us on a journey from scrum ruck and maul, to the
running and passing of the offence, the chasing and tackling of the
defence, through the kicking of penalties, to dressing for success
in scorching summer sevens or winning in the winter. Physics at
last comes alive, for here we look at a scrum, say, show what
Newton's laws have to say about it, and then use the physics to see
how to improve rugby. For any rugby fan with a smattering of
science, or any science buff who knows the rudiments of rugby, "The
Physics of Rugby" should delight, entertain, and instruct.
