Magic Albert

Another book for the professionals is Einstein’s Miraculous Year:
Five Papers that Changed the Face of Physics. But this is already a bestseller
in the US, no doubt due to the magic name. The title says it all: here’s the
real stuff, the papers that made 1905 Einstein’s annus mirabilis.
