I am an associate professor in the Philosophy Department at Illinois State University.
I have research interests in metaphysics, philosophy of language, the history of logic, medieval philosophy, and the philosophy of art. I have published work on the history of the Liar Paradox, time and change, essence and modality, and the ontological status of fictional characters.
Ahmed Alwishah and I have published a book on the history of the Liar Paradox, The Final Word: al-Dawānī and the Liar Paradox in the Islamic World. You can read the first 20 pages or so for free on Google Books. You can find it in a library using WorldCat. You can buy it from Oxford University Press, Bookshop.org, Barnes & Noble, or Amazon.
We also have an entry on the topic forthcoming in the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy.
