Ignorance

"In Ignorance, Nicholas Rescher presents a comprehensive study that examines the manifestations, consequences, and occasional benefits of ignorance in areas of philosophy, scientific endeavor, and ordinary life. Citing philosophers, theologians, and scientists from Socrates to Steven Hawking, Rescher seeks to uncover the factors that hinder our cognition. His thorough analysis concludes that ignorance itself is a fertile topic for knowledge, and recognizing the boundaries of our comprehension is where wisdom begins."--BOOK JACKET.
