I’ve recently become fascinated by 17th century genius Blaise Pascal, so I was delighted to speak to Graham Tomlin, the author of ‘Blaise Pascal – The Man Who Made the Modern World’ (a book which I loved!)

Graham Tomlin taught theology at Oxford University for many years and served as Bishop of Kensington from 2015 until 2022. He is Director of the Centre for Cultural Witness, the author of many books and articles, and the founder of Seen & Unseen.
