Foundations of Modern Harmony by Karel Janecek

Karel Janecek's Foundations of Modern Harmony, translated into English for the first time, presents a theory of chord quality in atonal context. First published in 1965, it stands out among music theoretical publications with its balanced approach that combines systematics and empirical studies.
Karel Janeček (1903-1974), was a composer, music theorist, pedagogue, and a pupil of Vítězslav Novák. He taught at the Prague Conservatory and after 1945 was among the co-founders of the Musical Faculty of the Academy of Performing Arts in Prague, where he promoted music theory as a major. Between 1956 and 1968, he published a cycle of university-level textbooks: Musical Forms, Melodics, Tectonics: The Study of the Structure of Compositions, and Foundations of Music Harmony.
