Golf: The Science and the Art, Tate Publishing and Enterprises, 2008.
The book: This book is a wide-ranging must read for students of the game as well as a technical primer for the professional seeking an understanding of the science of golf. Much more than a technical book, it also gives the history of the sport, tells how to master the golf swing and provides practical keys to lowering your score.
The author: Leon Z. Seltzer spent 40 years as professor of aerospace engineering at Virginia Tech, West Virginia University and St. Louis University, from which he retired as dean of engineering in 1981. He used his technical knowledge of both engineering and golf to serve as a golf physicist consultant to several firms in the San Diego, California, area.
