Before you move to your view, make sure your controller is sending the
right data to the view.

In your controller run your find

$books = $this->Book->find('all');

Then debug the results to make sure you are getting your Authors

echo debug($books);

If you are not then you need to look at why your find is not pulling
form the associated model as it should if all settings are default.

Are the associations setup correctly? Does each book have an author?
Do you have recursive set to only find from the main model? Are you
using containable but have not set your containable array?
