Otherwise this is a great, straightforward, easy to understand book that explains how blatantly manipulative actions go on every day in ways unlikely to be noticed. Plus it gives examples of the desired outcome from those efforts.
Intriguing

There are a few unanswered questions that Brodie's treatment skirts. I'd like to know how music fits the meme model. It certainly replicates, does it use the same path? What are the basic motivators that the music meme rides on?
Could there be a strategy to improve meme quality? What criteria would be valid?
Is there a case/risk for pop-up memes for urgent issues? I know that the morning news is a quasi pop-up meme generator. But this source is worn out and now directly challenged, politically and by Internet competition. Which raises the question about judgement - is awareness enough?
Richard reads this work very well. I enjoyed the listen and am still pondering... I hope he finds the time to write the sequel.

An interesting way of looking at things

I am new to the meme subject, I am happy I tried it. BRODIE has put the concepts clear and basic enough to wet my appetite on the subject.
Definitely worth a read

As others had stated the book is a fair bit repetitive and a bit shallow considering the topic discussed. If feels like a rough draft, or a very long blog post.
I do appreciate what the author was intending (we are largely controlled by ideas, traditions, memes etc that are not our own) but the work just seemed a little unfocused and repetitive with a lot of his assertions left unsupported.
I’d love to find a well researched book that thoroughly/properly explores the phenomena of memes.
I wanted to like this...
