...It is "Advanced Electronic Circuits" pub Springer-Verlag.
And it is hella expensive.. but, I fluked one at a local secondhand bookshop
here in Melbourne Australia! It's a particularly rapacious shop too, so I 
think it would kill the owner to know that the $15 US he charged is about
10% of new price ;D

Another book, that is designed for people doing practical analog, is
"Design with Operational Amplifiers and Analog Integrated Circuits" 2ed
Sergio Franco McGraw-Hill
...remarkably enough, this guy actually has designed a huge analog synth, 
back in the old days! (the Sal-Mar construction).

I personally have learnt a lot from Linear Technology application notes.
The bottom line is, everyone here is making synth circuits (or intending to)
and we are a pretty mixed bunch, from EEs to lawyers. From 15 to 50+.
And with 'gifts differing' ;D
So everyone has different needs, and there isn't going to be a 'one size
fits all' electronics book  for us.
But I hope, when anyone finds somethihg that helps them, that they tell 
the rest of us.
