- The book is a major piece of scholarship, based on archival materials from 16 countries. This includes 277 illustrations of archival documents, such as master plans and other planning documents, most of which were published. The impact of the book inside and beyond academia has been significant. According to a review published in The Guardian (January 3, 2020), "this is one of those books that turns a discipline upside down – the cold war, state socialism, eastern Europe and 20th-century architecture all look different in the light of its findings."
