Scientists with a keen interest in hockey make for perhaps 0.1% of North America’s population; it would be pointless to cater a book or a website only to them. Do equations scare you? You are not alone. Imagine, we are in physics and sometimes we are also turned off by equations. It’s funny, it might be because equations contain so much information that they demand extra attention. Alain kept this in mind when he wrote The Physics of Hockey and designed this website.
Browsing it you’ll find a number of equations, but the text is written so you get the message anyway. As physics educators, we know we can all understand the essence of physics by means of words. So stick to the texts and you’ll be fine.
