I don't think this would qualify as a Bukharin for beginners but I can't recommend Stephen F. Cohen's bio highly enough. It is elegantly written and politically informed, in its way as good as Deutscher's biography of Trotsky.

Unfortunately, it was Bukharin's NEP policy that led Cohen to embrace perestroika and then to become a Putinite. But as history and biography, his book is first-rate.
