He has published more than 10 books on scientific possibilities and puzzles. Dewdney was a co-inventor of programming game Core War.In 2003, Dewdney conducted three aerial experiments on cellphone communication, in attempts to prove that cellphones will not function on passenger aircraft when in flight. The last experiment was filmed and broadcast by Japan's TV Asahi.For the last 20 years, Dewdney has concentrated on biology, both as a field ecologist and as a mathematical biologist, contributing a solution to the thorny problem of determining the underlying dynamics of species abundance in natural communities.".
