Description: This is the first book devoted to a highly significant doctrine in the history of philosophy and science--Aristotle's account of place in the Physics. Morison presents an authoritative analysis and defense of this account of what it is for something to be somewhere, and demonstrates its enduring philosophical interest and value.

Review Quotes: "This book is very readable and clearly presented. ... Anyone interested in Aristotle, the history of philosophy and science, or ancient philosophy will want to read this refreshingly positive and philosophically interesting account of the seemingly ordinary yet very complex notion of place."--The Review of Metaphysics
