Fysiikka by Aristotle
An extended inquiry into the principles and causes of natural change and motion, arguing that nature itself is a principle of movement and rest; it develops the distinction between form and matter and between potentiality and actuality, formulates the four causes (material, formal, efficient, final) as keys to explanation, and examines the nature of place, void, time, motion, and the continuum while critiquing rival accounts and defending a teleological and empirical approach to understanding physical reality.
