Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
What can we learn from the life and work of the 17th Century French polymath Blaise Pascal? In what sense did he "make the modern world"? And what does he have to teach us about how to relate science and religion, faith and reason in the 21st Century.
In this episode Revd Dr Nick Moore, Warden of Cranmer Hall, speaks to Rt Revd Dr Graham Tomlin, the former Bishop of Kensington and Editor of Seen and Unseen, about his new book Blaise Pascal: The Man Who Made the Modern World, which was released in 2025.
