Review of “The Illustrated Principles of Pool & Billiards” by David (Dr Dave) Alciatore, PhD
David (Dr Dave) G. Alciatore’s book The Illustrated Principles of Pool and Billiards explains what happens on the pool table from a scientific or engineering perspective. By explaining the underlying forces, the cause and effect of where balls go and why, Dr Dave will enable you to understand pool at a fundamental level.
Hopefully that didn’t scare you off, because this book is written for ordinary people in plain and clear language. I wish there were such lucid explanations for everything else in the world.
Review of “Upscale One Pocket” by Jack H. Koehler
One-Pocket is a specialized game that requires a different skill set than other games. To become a good one-pocket player, you’ll need to learn these skills to a high degree of proficiency, and that warrants a book targeted at doing just that. This excellent text is the only one available at a reasonable price that covers the subject.
