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.

Non-free / fair use media rationale for Programming Ruby
Description	Cover art for Programming Ruby.
Source	Unknown, but can easily be replaced by known sources if someone wants to raise the issue.
Article	Programming Ruby
Portion used	Just the cover art, which is trivial compared to the book itself, the actual product being sold.
Low resolution?	Web resolution.
Purpose of use	Identify the cover of the Programming Ruby article and its artistic style used in promotion.
Replaceable?	Irreplaceable. It's a copyrighted cover; no free image is possible that is also correct for what the cover actually is. No art has been released into the public domain to my knowledge.
