He enrolled part-time in his PhD in Language and the Theory of Information at London University while working as Research Officer (radar and computing) for General Electric Company, London, from 1950 to '55. In 1955, he was appointed Lecturer in Philosophy at what became the University of New South Wales, Australia, becoming Professor and Head of the School of Philosophy there in 1966, a position he held until his death. He wrote four published books, Elementary Formal Logic, a Programmed Course (1966), Fallacies (1970), Languages of Asia and the Pacific: A Phrasebook for Travellers and Students (1984), and Imperatives (1987), and published over 30 papers on computer architecture, logic and philosophy.
