- Reconstructing Modernity is an 80,000 word monograph that is the culmination of eight years of research into the redevelopment of British cities between the 1920s and the late 1950s. It uses two detailed case studies, Manchester and Hull, which involved intensive surveys of local government archives in both cities over a thirty year period, the examination of government files at The National Archives, reviewing newspaper content over the same period, examining parliamentary debates and legislation, as well as the analysis of primary planning documents to come to new conclusions about the process of post-war rebuilding.
