Edited by James M. Houston

Mind on Fire is an easy-to-read translation of the classic Pensees by Blaise Paschal. Here the remarkable seventeenth -century mathematician, physicist, and religious thinker presents his uncompromising defense of the Christian faith - a rigorous refutation of the myth that to become a Christian is to commit intellectual suicide.

Dr. James Houston has arranged Pascal's seemingly random meditations into a logical progression of thought - the first time ever that an editor has carried out Pascal's original intention for his Pensees. Also included are selections from Pascal's Letters to a Provincial, Pascal's own description of his conversion.
