Readings in Database Systems by Joseph Hellerstein and Michael Stonebrakerhttps://www.amazon.com/Readings-Database-Systems-Joseph-Hell...
This is the answer. But if they are going to, I would recommend a book called "Designing Data-Intensive Applications" by Martin Kleppmann. It is a book with the most clear communication on this topic and others that I have ever read. Even if you have a degree in CS, I think it is eye-opening to see how very complex ideas can be communicated vs the same ideas in textbooks.
Try reading Designing Data-Intensive Applications.

If you're looking for books in databases, I'd recommend flipping through Designing Data-Intensive Applications and picking a topic that interests you and diving into the references. It's meant to be a high level overview. A lot of the value in the book is the references and recommended readings Kleppmann suggests in each chapter.other than that you would have to be more specific on what you're looking to learn.
For anyone eager to read something now, Designing Data-Intensive Applications [1] is an excellent and completed book that covers nearly all of the same material with significant depth.[1] https://www.amazon.com/Designing-Data-Intensive-Applications...
