He was a child prodigy who was educated by his father, a tax collector in Rouen.  Pascal's earliest work was in the natural and applied sciences where he made important contributions to the study of fluids, and clarified the concepts of pressure and vacuum by generalising the work of Evangelista Torricelli.  Pascal also wrote in defence of the scientific method. [PAR] [TLE] Pascal (unit) [SEP] The pascal (symbol: Pa) is the SI derived unit of pressure used to quantify internal pressure, stress, Young's modulus and ultimate tensile strength.  It is defined as one newton per square metre.  It is named after the French polymath Blaise Pascal.
