Synopsis

Michael Faraday's story is a classic tale of success against the odds. Although he was born poor and acquired little education as a boy, Faraday went on to become one of the world's most famous scientists. In fact, his work was central to the creation of technology that runs on electricity. Perhaps Faraday's greatest legacy is the way he inspired other scientists. Faraday's picture was on Albert Einstein's wall along with photographs of James Clerk Maxwell and Isaac Newton. Ernest Rutherford, known as the father of nuclear physics, said this about Faraday, “When we consider the magnitude and extent of his discoveries and their influence on the progress of science and of industry, there is no honor too great to pay to the memory of Faraday, one of the greatest scientific discoverers of all time.”
