Which school did Michael Faraday go?
Amazingly, Faraday was largely self-taught. He only attended school, where he studied basic subjects, until he was fourteen. He then apprenticed at a book-binder for seven yea…rs, during which time, he read innumerable books, many of which were related to science, a subject that fascinated him. He began attending public lectures, especially a series given by the noted chemist Humphry Davy, and he took thorough notes on these lectures. In fact, Faraday sent Davy his 300-pages of lecture notes, to show how interested he was in what Davy had to say. Davy ultimately hired Faraday as a lab assistant at the Royal Institute in 1813, and that is where Faraday began a distinguished career. He first helped Davy and other scientists with experiments that involved electromagnetic research, and by the mid 1820s, he was giving his own lectures about electricity. (MORE)
