2Natural philosophers were not referred to as scientists until the second half of the nineteenth century. Michael Faraday, whose discoveries and ideas transformed physics and chemistry, always insisted that he be known as a natural philosopher. The term “scientist” was coined in 1833 by the English polymath and Cambridge don, William Whewell at the request of Samuel Taylor Coleridge who demanded a more suitable and inclusive term in place of “natural philosopher”. But the term did not come into general use in the English-speaking world until the 1860’s.
