Someone was asking recently about books on temperament, and the usual suspects came up (Barbour, Jorgensen, Helmholtz/Ellis etc.). I thought Id mention one I just got (I love used book stores, maybe when I retire, hah!) called 'The Structure of Recognizable Diatonic Tunings' by Easley Blackwood, Princeton U Press. It seems to be a highly mathematical comparison of tuning methods, if I ever get through it I'll post a review. Also for sheer oddity you cant beat Harry Partch's 'Genesis of a Music', anyone interested in alternate tunings will enjoy some of it.
