Synthesis is NOT for dummies!

However, there are many books for intelligent neophytes. A couple of 
classics from the analog era, if you can find them, are:

Allen Strange. Electronic Music: Systems, Techniques, and Controls

Thomas Wells & Eric Vogel. The Technique of Electronic Music


A very good history is:

Joel Chadabe. Electric Sound: The Past and Promise of Electronic Music
