Rethinking Presuppositions
From Natural Ontology to Lexicon
This book overturns the study of presuppositions. Arguing that mainstream debate has focused on how presuppositions are made, not what they are, it reveals a new model: a curve ranging from natural ontology to the lexicon. A challenging and essential read for scholars.

Understanding Edgar Allan Poe
They Who Dream by Day
This book argues that the horrific experiences in Poe's tales are a blueprint for empathy. To truly understand another person, we must go out of our minds, enter theirs, and confront the terror of being lost in a world that is not our own.
