Theremin: Ether Music and Espionage by Albert Glinsky

This is the unbelievable but true story of the eponymous Leon Theremin, whose instrument can be heard in many science fiction movies due its eerie sound quality (my favorite is The Day the Earth Stood Still). This book covers his highly eventful and extraordinary long life in great detail.
