(Preface) 'Pentagram is probably the best known design company in the world, and certainly among the most influential. It is the doyen of design groups, whose star-studded cast of partners has generated graphic, architectural and product design of consistent excellence for more than twenty years. The Compendium is the first major survey of the group since 1978. The book achieves a rare and important insight into Pentagram's creative durability, and for the first time documents the American dimension to its output, with work from the group's offices in New York and San Francisco as well as from London. Organized in five sections, The Compendium brings together thoughts, essays and work from Pentagram's individual partners to reveal the depth of the group's resources.'
