I don't think this is really what you are looking for but I was interested in a similar topic and ended up only finding and reading this from my local library. It's about a capital city in India that was made at a time when they most embraced soviet central planning and soviet building styles. The main architect was Le Corbusier and the book claims it was the city that he had the most actual control over its final product (and thus the most "Le Corbusier" city in actual existence).

The actual book is mostly pictures though with not that much writing or history, though as someone with little architectural knowledge I thought it was interesting enough. And I also learned that I hate soviet-style concrete buildings and city planning.

As far as a particular question: Why is it that particular elements of Shinto and Indian architecture and design are so similar? Those places aren't exactly next to each other.

Learning From the Japanese City: West Meets East in Urban Design by Barrie Shelton is something you might find interesting. One of its ideas is the difference between the philosophy of space in the West and in Japan, which results in differences in many areas, from website design to urban patterns. The pdf can easily be found online.
