The subject has had a few well-cited publications, but I don't think we have enough to satisfy WP:NACADEMIC. Like many biographies of academics, the citations available are bios published non-independently by universities that they've worked at, interviews that give little context about the subject, and works written by the subject, none of which add up to GNG. An internet search turned up more articles written in newspapers by the subject, but not secondary coverage. signed,Rosguill talk 05:11, 11 February 2020 (UTC)

 * Strong Keep Subject easily passes Criterion 7 of WP:NACADEMIC. A simple search of news articles on google show that subject has co-authored articles appearing in NYT and NBCNews. Subject has been quoted as an expert in his field in NYT, Washington Post, Wired, Vice, The Guardian, etc. Sulfurboy (talk) 07:38, 11 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep Meets WP:AUTHOR via multiple, substantial reviews of his books. Here is just a sample:     buidhe 07:49, 11 February 2020 (UTC)
 * The page could certainly use some bold cleanup to ditch the promotional tone, adding reviews/reception of his books, and so forth, but AfD is not cleanup. buidhe</b> 07:51, 11 February 2020 (UTC)
