His primary interests intersect the Philosophy of Language, Philosophy of Mathematics, Logic, and Philosophy of Mind. Along with two monographs, he has published numerous articles on a wide range of topics, all focusing on themes of interdisciplinary interest, including the meanings of number words, the nature and contents of numerical concepts, singularity and plurality, nominalization, group-formation, and other natural language phenomena threatening paradox, and how subjectivity and perspective in expressed in natural language meaning.
