Faraday's+Biografy

 Michael Faraday ( Newington, Surrey, September 22, 1791 - Hampton Court , August 25, 1867 ) was an English chemist and physicist and was considered one of the most influential scientists of all time.  Michael Faraday was born in Newington Butts, in South London. The family after his birth moved to London, and he received the foundation of their education, learning reading, writing and math.  Faraday started working at the age of 13, as errand boy for a bookbinder and marketer of books , George Riebau , a French immigrant who came to London because of the French Revolution. In 105, at 14 years, Faraday became an apprentice for Riebau , and read several of the books that he binded during his seven years of apprenticeship.  Faraday stood out for his discoveries in electricity and electromagnetism. He discovered electromagnetic induction in 1831 and two years later introduced the concepts of field and field lines. He s tudied problems where electrolysis discoveries made ​​basic by creating the designations of electrolysis,the cathode, anode, ions, among others. He devoted himself then to the study o electrostatic induction, and discovered in 1845 , the polarization rotating magnetic phenomenon that has proven key in the modern theory of magnetism.
