Wasserman's research focuses on metaphysical puzzles such as time travel paradoxes, persistence of objects through time, identity, and dispositions. He has authored influential works like Paradoxes of Time Travel and co-edited Metametaphysics. His recent work explores topics like intrinsic properties, mutability of the future, and theological fatalism.
Notable publications include analyses of causal constraints in time travel, debates over temporal parts and persistence theories, and examinations of the relationship between dispositions and conditionals. His work often bridges abstract metaphysical inquiry with practical implications for ethics and epistemology.
Wasserman’s contributions span books, edited volumes, and over 30 journal articles. Despite his prolific output, no specific grants or awards are explicitly noted in the provided materials.
