Why is it important?
It offers the reader reasons for taking substance dualism seriously, not only as a theory of human nature, but also as a ground for thinking about the image of God.
Perspectives
This is an important attempt to offer robust reasons for thinking that the 'image' is not only a substance, but it is an immaterial substance. This view deserves the attention of theologians because it provides a plausible rationale for reading Scripture.
