Licensing
==Fair Use rationale==
 * 1) Book cover being used solely as an illustration of the article on the book: Heath Ledger: His Beautiful Life and Mysterious Death, written by John McShane and published by John Blake Publishing Ltd in April 2008; http://www.blake.co.uk.
 * 2) Source of book cover promotional photograph: Amazon.com; also accessible via Amazon.co.uk. (See copyright information below.)
 * 3) Copyright information located via "Search Inside" feature at Amazon.co.uk at the following URL: Copyright page. An excerpt from the "Prologue" of the book and some of the text of its back cover are also featured on that site, via links: Heath Ledger: His Beautiful Life and Mysterious Death product page at Amazon.co.uk.
 * 4) Identity of the photographer of the cover photograph is not yet accessible. If/when known, it may be added.  The cover photograph is listed on the back page of the book as "Copyright © REX features".
 * 5) That book cover photograph (as cropped on the book cover featuring it) appears to be derived from the following cropped photograph posted on rexfeatures.com, which would appear to derive from a still of the film Brokeback Mountain: namely, http://www.rexfeatures.com/images/thumb/550196v.jpg . Given that provenance, it would appear that the book cover photograph is actually from the film photography or promotional film stills and that its copyright is owned by the film production company at least in part if not in whole.  That photograph (or its original version) has been widely circulated as promotional material for the film on the internet and audio-visual news and entertainment media.  The cinematographer for the film is Rodrigo Prieto.  Production stills such as this book cover appear to come from the film itself.
 * 6) Book design is cited on the copyright page as http://www.envydesign.co.uk.
 * 7) Fair use is claimed in use in the article about the book in Wikipedia: there is no competition with the film or the book, and its use in the article about the book is purely illustrative of an encyclopedia article about the book.
 * 8) There is no claim to or competition with any properties owned by Focus Features, Universal Pictures, or Paramount Pictures.
