Albert Glinsky’s biography, "Theremin: Ether Music and Espionage", with a Foreword by Robert Moog, was published in 2000 by the University of Illinois Press, and received positive worldwide press coverage in both print and broadcast media, ranging from the "Toronto Star" and "The Weekly Standard" to "Electronic Musician" magazine, "Computer Music Journal", and "Performance Today" (National Public Radio). The "London Times" called it, "a fascinating rediscovery of a forgotten man, and a valuable contribution to the history of the future." "The Washington Post" found it, “exhaustively researched and revealing,” and Larry Lipkis wrote in the "Library Journal" that it “approaches the writings of Alexandr Solzhenitsyn in its intensity." The American critic and composer, Kyle Gann wrote, “Albert Glinsky’s Theremin: Ether Music and Espionage is the most exciting music biography I’ve ever read.”  "The Wire" magazine called it, "a top-flight biography destined to remain the defining portrait of its subject,” and since its publication the book has become the primary resource on Leon Theremin and his work in both academic and popular spheres. The American musicologist, Richard Taruskin, references and quotes from "Theremin" in his book, "Music in the Late Twentieth Century: The Oxford History of Western Music", and the book is referenced in such volumes as "Cambridge Introductions to Music: Electronic Music," "Electronic and Experimental Music" by Thom Holmes, "Analog Days" by Trevor Pinch and Frank Trocco, and in numerous masters theses, doctoral dissertations, and academic papers around the world on topics ranging from electronic music histories to sensor technology and scientific and musical applications of electromagnetic fields.
