The Second Book of General Ignorance
''The Second Book of General Ignorance'' is the fifth in a series of books based on the final round in the intellectual British panel game ''QI'', written by series-creator John Lloyd and head-researcher John Mitchinson. It is the second book to be based on the show's final round "General Ignorance", the first being ''The Book of General Ignorance'' first published in 2006. Like the original book, it is a trivia book aiming to address and correct the comprehensive and humiliating catalogue of all the misconceptions, mistakes and misunderstandings in 'common knowledge' — it is therefore known not as a 'General Knowledge' book, but as 'General Ignorance'.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Second Book of General Ignorance )〕 A second, expanded edition called ''The Discreetly Plumper Second QI Book of General Ignorance'' was released on 4 October 2012.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Discreetly Plumper Second QI Book of General Ignorance (Book) )〕
