Rik Peels' Ignorance: A Philosophical Study. Denicola, D. International Journal for the Study of Skepticism, 2023.
doi  abstract   bibtex   
Although Rik Peels modestly subtitles his book A Philosophical Study,1 he promptly declares his ambitious, two-fold plan: to develop a "full-blown epistemology of ignorance"and then to use his epistemology "to enlighten several important debates that involve the notion of ignorance"(14, 18). The opening chapter includes a seven-page history of the philosophy of ignorance including brief notices of Hindu and Buddhist concepts, an account of the historic neglect of ignorance in analytic epistemology, and notice of recent scholarship. Though this introduction is largely self-contained, it does set a scholarly context for Peels' study, which he then previews. © 2023 Brill Academic Publishers. All rights reserved.
