This work is taken from a series looks at the development of scientific thought and discovery through the lives and achievements of some of the world's great scientists. The book traces Faraday's rise to scientific prominence from his humble origins as a blacksmith's son. The author describes his passion for experiment and shows the far-reaching effects of his discoveries, particularly in the field of electricity. A clear text and supportive illustrations show how the young Michael Faraday's obsession with science and experiment led him to become one of the greatest scientists of all. His career is followed from his beginnings as an apprentice bookbinder by the scientific texts he encountered, through to his many discoveries in electricity, electo-chemistry, optics, chemistry and thermodynamics.
