Riassunto

Moog himself provides a brief introduction to this lively history, which begins in the 1960s and tracks the individuals involved in the development of synthesizers, the musicians who made them their own, and the cultural and technological context and evolution of the phenomenon over time. The authors (sociology of science, Cornell U.) track down the who, what, and when of the invention; but the account is energized throughout by their enthusiasm for music and musical innovation, and the result is an anecdotal, personable history based largely on interviews. The Smithsonian Institution has supported their research. A discography is included. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
