Would you read a book on memes if it were published by Penguin Classics?

No, but I also wouldn't shit up this board with useless threads either so I don't know.

I already read a book on memes. It was called the Tipping Point.

Wasn't it Dawkins who invented the notion of memes? There won't be too much because it's so recent. But it does make it deliciously appropriate that Dawkins is now a meme himself.
