Each essay examines a specific problem, theme or member of the school, bringing to the fore how Aristotle's Hellenistic and post-Hellenistic heirs renewed his scientific project. Aristotle's theory of perception is elaborated on, new arguments are put forward for the eternity of the world, providence is incorporated into the Aristotelian universe. Peripatetic physics emerges from the combination of these and other perspectives on the study of nature from Theophrastus to Alexander.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eGweltaz Guyomarc'h\u003c\/b\u003e, Ph.D. (2012) is \u003ci\u003eMaître de conferences\u003c\/i\u003e at the University of Lyon.
