The Meme Machine by Susan J Blackmore

The Meme Machine by Susan J Blackmore

First coined by Richard Dawkins in The Selfish Gene (1976), memes are ideas, behaviours, or skills that are transferred from one person to another by imitation. With a foreword by Dawkins, this should become the definitive inaugural book on the burgeoning science of memetics. Starting with a clear definition of the meme it applies the principles of general evolutionary theory to understanding memetic selection. This book is intended for general public, academic psychologists, biologists, anthropologists.

Dr Susan Blackmore, psychologist and writer, has previously researched and written on consciousness, free will, memes and anomalous experiences. She balances writing, blogging, broadcasting and lecturing with regularly practising Zen. She is the acclaimed author of The Meme Machine.
