"The Art of Elecronic Music" ... this is a collection of articles and interviews that appeared in Keyboard magazine (US) in the mid 70's through the early 80's. The interviews with Klaus Schulze and Tangerine Dream are particularly interesting; there are also features on Kraftwerk, Wendy Carlos, and other electronic pioneers, as well as the origins of synthesized sound.
