Meme Bibilography

A nice start for this section is the Wikipedia entry on memes; it has a reference section that's worth looking at.  I've not read many of these works but I intend to do so over time.  Here are some that look juicy and relevant to the SMiSC efforts:

  1. Can we measure memes? by Adam McNamara
  2. Lynch, Aaron (1996), Thought contagion: how belief spreads through society, New York: BasicBooks, pp. 208, ISBN 0-465-08467-2
  3. Godwin, Mike. "Meme, Counter-meme". Wired
Hopefully Tim will add an academic search result list here or in a comment.

  1. I went through Worldcat...the largest library catalog and produced a list of just over 90 titles that will be useful to this project in one way or another. The titles vary across many sub-subjects.

    This is a public list so you can access information for each title.
