TV's Biggest Hits: The Story of Television Themes from Dragnet to Friends [Hardcover]. I bought it brand new to read and never got around to it. Decided to pass it on to someone who may read it. Below is a review I copied and pasted from Amazon.

On the back cover of the book, the author asks if the reader can identify no less than forty theme songs of television shows from over the past five decades. Only five escaped my memory. Thus, my "musical quotient", a term coined by the author, is pretty high.
In a time when the "hummable" and recognizable theme song seems to be a thing of the past, with only a few on-air shows today possessing them, this book is an excellent reflection of the theme as well as the accompanying scores and the musicians that composed them. Names like Morton Stevens, Gil Melle', Billy Goldenberg, Bruce Boughton, as well as film composers that occasionally dabbled in television (Jerry Goldsmith, John Williams, Franz Waxman, and Alex North) abound in the fact-filled book.

Divided into ten chapters, including a foreword and afterward, the book also has a list of "suggested listenings" wherein the reader can obtain recordings of respective themes and scores.
