Foundations of Ecology II : Classic Papers with Commentaries /

The classic papers that laid the foundations of modern ecology alongside commentaries by noted ecologists. The period of 1970 to 1995 was a time of tremendous change in all areas of ecology-from an increased rigor for experimental design and analysis to the reevaluation of paradigms, new models for...
