ABSTRACT
This chapter presents how possibility can be actual and efficacious qua possibility in a physical existent, namely by the possibility being 'entertained' by the physical existent. It then deals with some aspects of the concept of potentiality and the contrast of potentiality and actuality, and substance, antecedently to its actualization. In Kant's doctrine of acting monads, extensive relations are brought into being by the acting of the monads on each other. The extensive continuum is the structure of every possible 'where' and 'when' in this respect, there is a close agreement between Whitehead and Newton. Whitehead's conception of an 'extensive continuum' as the absolute structure of the 'places' of things. Now consider such a process of continuous actualization of elements. Involved in this kinsis, this process of actualization, as one aspect of it, could be a change of place of later actualizations relatively to antecedent ones. Thus would 'locomotion' be effected.
