Publisher's Summary

Michael Faraday was born in Newington Butts, Surrey, on September 22, 1791 (which is now part of the London District of Southwark). He grew up in a bad home. His dad, James, was a Christian who came from the Glasite sect. At the time of the winter season of 1790, James Faraday moved his marriage partner and two kids from Outhgill, Westmorland, where he had been an apprentice to the town blacksmith. In the fall of that year, Michael was born. Michael Faraday, the third of four kids, needed to inform himself after getting just a primary school education.

He started working as an apprentice to George Riebau, a regional bookbinder and bookseller on Blandford Street, when he was 14 years of age.

Faraday read a lot of literature throughout his seven-year apprenticeship, and that includes Isaac Watts' The Improvement of the Mind, which he actively adopted the concepts and recommendations in. He also ended up being intrigued by physics, specifically electrical power. Jane Marcet's book Discussions on Chemistry was specifically motivating to Faraday.

Let’s see what else he did. In this comprehensive guide, you will find out more.
