Another book for the professionals is Einstein’s Miraculous Year:
Five Papers that Changed the Face of Physics. But this is already a bestseller

real stuff, the papers that made 1905 Einstein’s annus mirabilis.
Edited and introduced by John Stachel, Princeton University Press,
£14.95/$19.95, ISBN 0691059381.
