I am talking out of my butt here, but I read a related book, "Man After Man", by the same author, when I was a kid, and it stuck with me, so many years later when Amazon became a thing, I tried to find it and his other books. I wound up in a rabbit hole of Google that suggested that he does some of the art and was discredited for it? At least. I think I remember something like that. Man After Man was trippy though.
Edit: Googled a bit, can't find reference to this now. Maybe I'm wrong? It could happen, in theory.
