We call the conscious choice not to seek or use knowledge (or information) deliberate ignorance. When is this a virtue, when is it a vice, and what can be learned from formally modeling the underlying motives? On which normative grounds can it be judged? Which institutional interventions can promote or prevent it? In this book, psychologists, economists, historians, computer scientists, sociologists, philosophers, and legal scholars explore the scope of deliberate ignorance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ralph Hertwig\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0262045591\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780262045599\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e MIT Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/02\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 396\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.70h x 5.80w x 1.00d","brand":"Ralph Hertwig","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43987531235583,"sku":"9780262045599","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6e17f51c-5355-4dc1-9ef8-c18ed920d74a.jpg?v=1683289542","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/deliberate-ignorance-ralph-hertwig-9780262045599","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
