This paper is exciting because it (1) demonstrates an alternative mechanism (frequency-dependent selection) for a fundamental pattern in evolution (deceleration of speciation rate during the course of evolutionary radiation), and (2) fits the model to real data from two well-known radiations. It represents a useful contribution...
