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 understanding, and
theoretical advances. Edited by ecologists Thomas E. Miller and
Joseph Travis, Foundations of Ecology II includes facsimiles of
forty-six papers from this period alongside expert commentaries
that discuss a total of fifty-three key studies, addressing topics
of diversity, predation, complexity, competition, coexistence,
extinction, productivity, resources, distribution, abundance, and
conservation. The result is more than a catalog of historic firsts;
this book offers diverse perspectives on the foundational papers
that led to today's ecological work. Like this book's 1991
predecessor, Foundations of Ecology edited by Leslie A. Real and
James H. Brown, Foundations of Ecology II promises to be the
essential primer for graduate students and practicing ecologists
for decades to come.
