He was a child prodigy who was educated by his father, a tax collector in Rouen. Pascal's earliest mathematical work was on conic sections; he wrote a significant treatise on the subject of projective geometry at the age of 16. He later corresponded with Pierre de Fermat on probability theory, strongly influencing the development of modern economics and social science. In 1642, while still a teenager, he started some pioneering work on calculating machines (called Pascal's calculators and later Pascalines), establishing him as one of the first two inventors of the mechanical calculator.

Pensées
Blaise Pascal
Translation edited by Pierre Zoberman with notes by David Wetsel and Pierre Zoberman
Introduction by David WetselThe Pensées highlights all facets of Pascal’s genius, his familiarity with Scripture combined with a talent for controversy, irony mixed with fervor, and altogether the production of an intriguing and challenging writer and thinker. This volume is a translation of Philippe Sellier’s edition of Pascal’s Pensées by a team of international Pascal scholars, in addition to two shorter texts, the Exchange with M. de Sacy and The Life of Monsieur Pascal by Pascal’s sister, Gilberte Périer.
“Reading Pensées afresh in this latest edition, I was amazed how truly insightful
