His 2005 book Forecasting Product Liability Claims: Epidemiology and Modeling in the Manville Asbestos Case, published by Springer with co-authors K.G. Manton and J.E. Cohen, covers the full range of epidemiological, demographic, and actuarial issues in asbestos-related disease and mortality. His six other books/monographs, 112 scientific articles, and 66 actuarial publications span a broad range of topics in medical demography and health/LTC actuarial practice.
