[edit] Licensing

This image is of a book cover, and the copyright for it is most likely owned either by the artist who created the cover or the publisher of the book. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of book covers

to illustrate an article discussing the book in question
on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation,

qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Other use of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, might be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information.

To the uploader: please add a detailed fair use rationale for each use, as described on Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline, as well as the source of the work and copyright information. Please include in your fair use rationale details of the particular edition (publisher, market & year of publication) of the edition you have used, and also acknowledge any cover artist if such artist is acknowledged in that edition's frontmatter. If the book cover is in the public domain (see Wikipedia:Public domain), then use the appropriate public domain tag rather than this one.

[edit] Fair Use rationale

The webpage for the book at its publisher's website Simon Says (cited in External links in the article on the book) features this book cover; it appears to be within fair use to post the image of the book cover in Wikipedia articles discussing the book. The website features a notice of copyright to Simon and Schuster, which is being credited in the caption for this photo as used in Wikipedia.
In addition to being referred to in the lead of the article Valerie Plame, further information about the book is in the article on the book, Fair Game: My Life as a Spy, My Betrayal by the White House, and in the specific section on the book in the article Valerie Plame#Fair Game.
No specific photographer is credited for the image used in the book cover on the Simon and Schuster website. (See * below.)
The same cover image is being used in sites like Amazon.com and other book publishers sites in featured information about the book.
The webpage features the following notice: "Copyright ©1997 - 2007, Simon & Schuster, Inc. ... All rights reserved, including the right of reproduction in whole or in part in any form." The book was published on October 22, 2007, and thus its promotional cover photograph is "© 2007 Simon & Schuster," as the caption indicates (shortened version, w/ Wikified link).
(*) In its own use of the same photograph of Valerie Plame Wilson that appears on the cover, the Brown Lecture Board (Brown University) credits "Julie Dennis" as the photographer in its publicity for Wilson's December 4, 2007 lecture about the book.[1]
Another photograph of Valerie Plame Wilson, on the occasion of that Brown U lecture about the book (a free image) is also now provided as an illustration in the infobox for the article Valerie Plame.
This photograph of the book cover is being used "within fair use" in the article on the book and in sections of Wikipedia articles that discuss the book.
