Within the discipline of Jewish studies, David cast a wide net as demonstrated by his 2 volumes set Some Early writings Biblical Exegesis, Jewish Philosophy, Jewish History, Hebrew Linguistics, Rabbinics, and Jewish Literature, among others.
While at BHU David also took courses in an exchange program with BHU and Johns Hopkins in both the Ancient Near Eastern Studies Department and German studies Department with emphasis on German Jewish thought. While at JHU David also loved to sit in on Philosophy of Science courses (see David's book noted by the Philosophy documentation center as a positive contribution, Essays in the History and Philosophy of Science) although David's knowledge in this the history of science is primarily autodidactic and learned from his father's love and interest in the field of history of science. In fact David's book on History of Science was written piecemeal while visiting David's father in Baltimore and listening to David's father's vast knowledge of the subject and drawing on David's fathers thousands of books in this academic field. In fact in 2017 David edited a five volume set of his father (Zl) in the area of history of medicine and science.
David was also able to publish an article in the prestigious, peer reviewed journal Journal of the History of Medicine and Allied Sciences.
