Title: The Meme Machine Author: Susan Blackmore, Richard Dawkins - foreword Narrator: Esther Wane Format: mp3 Length: 11 hrs and 32 mins Release date: 10-08-19 Ratings: 4.5 out of 5 stars, 97 ratings Genres: Anthropology Publisher's Summary: First coined by Richard Dawkins in The Selfish Gene, a meme is any idea, behavior, or skill that can be transferred from one person to another by imitation. Susan Blackmore shows that once our distant ancestors acquired the crucial ability to imitate, a second kind of natural selection began, a survival of the fittest amongst competing ideas and behaviors. Ideas and behaviors that proved most adaptive-making tools, for example, or using language - survived and flourished, replicating themselves in as many minds as possible.
