美国版权法与字体、字型和字库

早在数字化时代以前，美国的立法、行政和司法机关已经形成共识，印刷字体或者字型属于实用品，不能获得版权保护。进入数字化时代以后，美国版权局延续这一思路，规定生成字体、字型和字库的计算机软件可以获得版权保护，但字体、字型和字库本身不能获得版权保护。到了1992年，美国版权局还修改《版权注册规则》，明确规定数字化的字体不能获得版权注册。

Biology, violence, and antisocial personality.

Previous reports have examined separately the role of perinatal biology in the etiology of violent criminal behavior and the etiology of antisocial personality disorder (ASP). This paper brings together those two studies to test the hypothesis that violent behavior and ASP may result from different etiological factors. The two studies are on Danish birth cohorts, examined both for perinatal health and for violent, aggressive, and antisocial behavior later in life. Results suggest that while perinatal factors may be important in the etiology of violent criminal behavior, they do not appear to be similarly influential in the formation of ASP. These two studies are examined and their results and findings discussed in light of the limited literature in this area.
