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 Pascal's analysis as a wretched and desolate creature within an impersonal universe, but who can be transformed through faith in God's grace.

Blaise Pascal was one of the great geniuses of humanity and developed important works as a physicist, inventor, philosopher, and Catholic thinker. Born in France, while still young, he was responsible for significant advancements in the study of fluids, natural and applied sciences, and particularly in mathematics, being one of the precursors of probability analysis. From a mystical experience in 1654, he began to dedicate himself intensely to philosophy and theology, areas in which he also excelled. His work "Pensées" condenses his worldview into faith and spirituality. In it, we find what is probably his most quoted phrase: "The heart has its reasons, of which reason knows nothing."

Created by the seventeenth-century philosopher and mathematician Pascal, the essays contained in Human Happiness are a curiously optimistic look at whether humans can ever find satisfaction and real joy in life – or whether a belief in God is a wise gamble at best. Throughout history, some books have changed the world. They have transformed the way we see ourselves – and each other. They have inspired debate, dissent, war and revolution. They have enlightened, outraged, provoked and comforted. They have enriched lives – and destroyed them. Now Penguin brings you the works of the great thinkers, pioneers, radicals and visionaries whose ideas shook civilization and helped make us who we are.
