Phillips is the author of Mysterious Ways: Contingency, Emergence, and Selection in Nature (Oxford University Press, 2025); Landscape Evolution: Landforms, Ecosystems, and Soils (Elsevier, 2021) and Earth Surface Systems: Complexity, Order, and Scale (Blackwell, 1999). He has also published more than 200 articles in refereed journals of geomorphology, hydrology, soil science, geology, geography, ecology, environmental science, and geophysics. He currently splits his time between New Bern, NC, Myrtle Beach, SC, and Lexington, KY. Thoughretired from his university faculty job, he continues to be active in research, writing, and consulting. He conducts much of his fieldwork from a kayak, and derives much enjoyment from his grandchildren.
