Summary: 'Criminally Ignorant' deals with the legal fiction that we know what we don't. If you bury your head in the sand rather than learn you're committing a crime, you can be punished as if you knew. How can that be justified? This book offers a framework to explain why it's not as puzzling as it seems.
