No no no.... A book can't hope to capture the interwoven, subtle threads of the late 80's onwards, where British, German, American, Scandinavian and everybody else influenced and were influenced by each other, or even the early stages where you can drag all sorts of influences out of the past century or more of music. This needs to be hypertextual, either on the Web or (how mid 90s) CD ROM. You'd be able to put in all the different opinions and let the reader decide. Any developers out there?
