Reconstituting 'Original Intent:' A Constitutional Law Encyclopedia For The Next Century, David Skover
Faculty Articles
In this article Professor Skover reviews the Encyclopedia of the American Constitution. The Encyclopedia describes, in a fairly balanced and accurate manner, the contemporary understanding of the American constitutional heritage. The Encyclopedia exhibits the important functions that an encyclopedic work may serve in the legal culture of the twenty-first century. This review essay explores this thought.

Direct Broadcast Satellite: A Proposal For A Global/Regional System, Bryan Adamson, James Hsuing
Faculty Articles
The purpose of this article is to discuss the possibility of establishing a global/regional direct broadcast satellite (DBS) system.
