Is there any method for wrapping a design into a book cover form (3D-like)?
I mean wrapping a single rectangular design to cover & spine & back.

I'm using Adobe Illustrator CS5.

If your design is raster, AI won't allow you to distort it. You'd have to accomplish this in PS. However, if your design is vector, you can use this technique:

Select one or more objects.
Select the Free Transform tool .
Start dragging a corner handle on the bounding box (not a side handle), and then do one of the following:
Hold down Ctrl (Windows) or Command (Mac OS) until the selection is at the desired level of distortion.
Hold down Shift+Alt+Ctrl (Windows) or Shift+Option+Command (Mac OS) to distort in perspective.
