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.
Edited and introduced by John Stachel, Princeton University Press,
£14.95/$19.95, ISBN 0691059381.
