M. Planck, a man of science and of universal speculation
My copy is hardback (c) 1932, W.W. Norton & Company, Inc., New York, N.Y. Prologue by Albert Einstein; trans. by James Murphy. There is more to this book than just raw science, but what there is relates nicely to his speculation upon the grander scale. It qualifies ...

Treatise On Thermodynamics (1905)

Max Planck

Kessinger Publishing, LLC, 2008

The Theory of Heat Radiation

Max Planck

Dover Publications, 1991

Essential to understand radiative heat transfer
I recommend this book to anyone involved with radiative heat transfer, even engineers. Usually one makes contact with this subject through engineering-oriented books. But, at least in this case, the original work is much better. Engineers usually don't like to read ...

Eight Lectures on Theoretical Physics

Max Planck

Dover Publications, 1997

Personally More attuned to his book Philosophy of Physics
But I can appreciate lectures on reversibility and irreversibility, on the atomic theory of matter, on an equation of state, on heat radiation & electrodynamic theory, on the principle of least action, and on the principle of relativity.
