Blaise Pascal (1623-1662) was a French mathematician, physicist, and philosopher, known for his influential work on probability theory and his religious writings. In this collection of his thoughts, letters, and essays edited by Charles Louandre, Henry Rogers, and Victor Cousin, readers will find a treasure trove of insight into one of the greatest minds of the 17th century. Pascal's reflections on faith, reason, and the human condition are as relevant today as they were in his own time.
