This book is a contribution both to Aristotle studies and to the philosophy of nature, and not only offers a thorough text based account of time as modally potentiality in Aristotle´s account, but also clarifies the process of "actualizing time" as taking time and looks at the implications of conceiving a world without actual time. It speaks to the resurgence of interest in Aristotle´s natural philosophy and will become an important resource for anyone interested in Aristotle´s theory of time, of its relationship to Aristotle´s larger project in the Physics, and to time´s place in the broader scope of Aristotelian natural science. Graduate students and scholars researching in this area especially will find the authors arguments provocative, a welcome addition to other recent publications on Aristotle´s Treatise on Time. _
