Indeed it is!

Forgive me if I have made these recommendations already in this forum (I
can't remember) but if you are in any way interested in tuning you will love


Ross W. Duffin: How Equal Temperament Ruined Harmony (and Why You Should
Care)

ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1297092983&sr=8-3)

And if you are seriously interested in the history of pitch (as opposed to
tuning), you need to get 

Bruce Haynes: A History of Performing Pitch: The Story of 'A'
