If you haven't seen it already, take a look at Robert Aunger (ed.),
_Darwinizing Culture: The Status of Memetics as a Science_, Oxford U Press,
2000. Contains for and against contributions from many of the main
contributors to and critics of the meme literature. The introductory
chapter by Aunger is particularly thoughtful.
Best wishes,
