Chalmers goes from being puzzled about subjectivity (1995) to qualified certainty about ontological dualism (1996). He makes it seem as though his only options are mind-body dualism or ontic monism, though acknowledges that he might have made the wrong choice between the two.
Dualism wasn’t new, obvs, it’s just no one had pretended to believe it for a century. Maybe you should pivot on your reincarnation book. Pitch rebirth as a serious theory to philosophers, and fame awaits!

“Buddhism is true” is quite a hip stance among philosophers of mind currently. What would it take to lure them over a cliff into talking about rebirth as if it were a serious possibility? Probably not much; they’re desperate again.
