Searched about every bookstore/museum shop in Berlin for a complete, yet concise history of the city when I finally found this one.
It is truly striking how both division/duality and antisemtism have been part of the identity of Berlin dating all the way back to the Middle Ages.

[Legens · Rating 3 out of 5]

Concise introduction to the history of Berlin. It shines describing and dissecting the era on which Stöver's research is focused (the Cold War), where it paints a broad picture of politics, economy, and society. Other parts are decent, but clearly not as knowledgeably written.
