  • Abstract
    This paper consists of two parts: (1) a broadstroke survey of the substance, history, and purpose of copyright legislation; and (2) a discussion of the social, economic, and legal challenges to copyright resulting from an almost myopic emphasis on the social value of rapid accumulation and dissemination of information through the devices of computer technology.
