Description: Pensees, Paperback by Pascal, Blaise; Krailsheimer, A. J. (TRN), ISBN 0140446451, ISBN-13 9780140446456, Used Good Condition, Free shipping in the US Blaise Pascal, the precociously brilliant contemporary of Descartes, was a gifted mathematician and physicist, but it is his unfinished apologia for the Christian religion upon which his reputation now rests. The Penseés is a collection of philosohical fragments, notes and essays in which Pascal explores the contradictions of human nature in pscyhological, social, metaphysical and - above all - theological terms. Mankind emerges from Pascals analysis as a wretched and desolate creature within an impersonal universe, but who can be transformed through faith in Gods grace.
