Chapter 11: Nothing is too wonderful to be true

Faraday was regularly removed from his work space from fatigue or nervous headaches. He started getting into the atom and what it is since nobody knew what it actually was. They all just assumed what it was because they could not see it. Faraday thought of it a a vast structure. It was to him a massless thing that was associated with force. Faraday offered a paradox regarding the nature of space and matter, specifically the distinction between an electrical insulator and conductor. He said that the inter atomic void is the only only continuous path through which electricity flows.
