The Selfish Gene by Richard Dawkins
  1. Most people don't realize that the origin of the word meme is the, I believe, 1976 book by Richard Dawkins "The Selfish Gene" in which he coined the word "meme". Ideas propagate like genes, based on the survival of the fittest paradigm. Only the strongest memes survive.
