He is editor of the Australian Torts Law Journal. He wrote a text in 1974 that saw its fifth edition in 2008. This text is widely quoted in the highest courts of Australia, as well as England, Canada and the United States.
He is officially retired from University work, but he continues to maintain an office, teach, write essays and mark exams.
