 Above we read that “animals that walk” have minimal breaks in their local motion and now we face an even more serious challenge to the continuum theory. It should be noted that Ruth Glasner has argued that Averroes in this passage develops a new doctrine of change, namely, change as “a contiguous chain of intermediate changes” (Glasner 2009: 122–127). She has adduced evidence to support Averroes’ originality and the significance of his innovative doctrine for the history of modern science.
