Michael Faraday and Electricity (Pioneers of Science… par Brian Bowers
This book, written by an electrical engineer, was published in 1974. The illustrations are in black and white, the discussion of Faraday's electrical discoveries detailed. I bogged down in the middle because I ceased to be able to follow the electrical discussion really well. It is an excellent intermediate-level book about the great scientist.
