I'd agree Brian, and, disappointingly, being a avid reader of sci-fi 
'til I was about 21, I noted that the only name pictured with whom I was 
familiar with, or even heard of, was Larry Niven.
Mind you, I did also think that the name Erik Wilkerson rang a bell 
somehow, but, googling him, I discovered the reason the bell rang, was 
because he was a semi famous American footballer who went on the run 
after stabbing and killing someone. He was sentenced to 12 years in the 
slammer a few months ago, hence the dim recollection. Google also told 
me there was a second Eric W who is indeed a well known - except to me - 
illustrator.

But the the photos are impressive, and looking at them, you'd work out 
quite quickly that the subjects aren't working in Wall St.
