Michael Faraday


                                                          Michael Faraday (1791-1867)

 British experimental scientist Michael Faraday is a classical example of a person who became great by shear hard work, perseverance, lover for science and humanity. He started his carrier as an apprentice with a book binder, but utilized the opportunity to read science books that he received for binding. He sent his notes to
Sir Humphry Davy, who immediately recognized the talent in the young man and appointed him his permanent assistant in the Royal Institute.
Sir Humphry Davy once admitted that the greatest discovery of his life was Michael faraday. And he was right because Faraday made basic discoveries which led to the electrical age. It is because of his discoveries that electrical generators, transformers, electrical motors, and electrolysis became possible.
