"""The questions posed by the author are as classic as they are original. . . Although more fragmentary than the author himself suggests in the preface to the book, the essays in Absolute Beginners offer interesting insights. And they reiterate a central concept in the Spanish architect's production: (high quality) architectural creation is inextricably linked to a reflection on the past.""-- ""Abitare"""
