Abstract
As mentioned in the introduction, every time some philosophers begin a publication on ignorance, they need to consider the three kinds of ignorance they are going to face in the process: the one that they have read about; the one that they are going to discuss; and the one they are going to leave behind. In this section, I am going to discuss the last of the three, trying to sum up the main argument of the dissertation and how it could motivate further research.
