Problem:

The table AUTHORS has the fields (id, given_name, last_name, created, modified) 
but no title field.

I wish to fill a select box with the id and FULL NAME that is created by 
merging last_name and first_name. in SQL you'd do soemthing like:

SELECT id, CONCAT( last_name, ', ', first_name) AS title FROM authors

how can I use this form of "query" in CakePHP to generate the list using:

        $this->set('authors', $this->Book->Author->generateList());


Thanks\

Adrian
