- Acerca de Michael Faraday
Michael Faraday is considered by many to be the father of electrochemistry. A self-taught scientist, he was introduced to the fields of chemistry and electricity through reading the books that came into the bookbinding shop in which he was an apprentice. Intrigued by the field, he performed the experiments he read about, and went on to become a laboratory assistant for Sir Humphrey Davy at the Royal Institution. Furthering his self-education, he read works by Dr. Isaac Watts, who significantly influenced Faraday’s thought process and research method. Faraday went on to create the first device that converted mechanical energy to electrical energy, and, in fact, all electric generators today are based on his discoveries. Additionally, he holds numerous achievements in chemistry, such as his discovery of benzene and the liquefaction of chlorine.
