The winner of the 2024 Dallas Willard Research Center Book Award. From the cover: "In The Substance of Consciousness, two distinguished philosophers deliver a unique and powerful defense of contemporary substance dualism, which makes the claim that the human person is an embodied fundamental, immaterial, and unifying substance. Multidisciplinary in scope, the book explores areas of philosophy, cognitive science, neuroscience, and the sociology of mind-body beliefs. An essential and ground-breaking work for consciousness researchers, philosophical theologians, and religious studies scholars, The Substance of Consciousness is the most comprehensive, up-to-date, and rigorous non-edited work on substance dualism in the field."
