All is one with one

Here's a book seen on a colleague's book shelf.  That's right, the title is E Pluribus Unicorn.  I forgot to take a picture of the blurb on the back, but apparently it's a collection of short stories.  The author, Sturgeon, also wrote a couple episodes of the original Star Trek series and may have been a least partly the inspiration for the character Kilgore Trout, also a science fiction writer with a fishy last name, in Kurt Vonnegut's novels.

Also, here's a paleontologist with a squid on his head.
