Growing points in community paleoecology

Hoffman, A.

Abstract

Community paleoecology has passed its peak. The few papers that still appear do not bring any new theoretical concepts or stimulating and exciting hypotheses. The author himself shared the hope and enthusiasm with the most fervent adherents to this research concept. This may explain why he perceives its achievements so critically, but also why he is so desperately attempting to appreciate its actual promises.
