The book is charming and a pleasure to read. Most chapters start by observing some kind of ignorance (active or passive, willed or forced) at work in a given domain and proceed to a compendium of related bouts of unknowing, leavening in occasionally interesting glosses and sprigs of closer textual commentaries that make for meals of varying sumptuousness and satisfaction. My only disappointment is that, across the book, a fair number of the reported cases of ignorance come from psychoanalytic case work, yet the book never really makes a defense or explication of psychoanalysis’ particular intervention in the complex of ignorance/denial/negation; this is fine for audiences that don’t need that or can supply it on their own, but I suspect that for a US-based readership Salecl could have forwarded her theoretical ‘machinery’ to great effect, especially given her elocutionary gifts.

Yet the evident care with which her examples and commentary subtly and suggestively blend, unencumbered by the need for much posturing and maneuvering, reveals a keen if mostly unspoken attention to the theoretical issues at play. Certain readers will find absolutely tantalizing Salecl’s updating/adapating of some of the most speculative hypotheses of *Beyond the Pleasure Principle* to organisms in the information age, under the banner of ‘protective stupidity.’ Many more—those not allergic to psychoanalysis—may find some richly surprising nuggets tucked here and there, alongside the more familiar Lacanian tropes, and all, I think, will be persuaded that “the knowledge economy” is quite the misnomer, if a rather self-flattering one.
