Dear David,

Please consider posting my book, Mirror Reversal, on your site.  I call it "quirky adult fiction."  It's an allegory of Dawkins' The Selfish Gene and it’s heavily into memetics and evolution.  It's about a modest, prim, evolutionary biology professor whose genes flip.  As shy as she was, that's how fast she becomes—to use Dawkins' terminology.

Here's my website:  http://www.mirrorreversal.com/

The Lucifer Effect by my former professor at NYU, Phillip Zimbardo, certainly belongs on your list.

Also, please consider adding a very important meme to your lexicon that I coined in 2007.  From the glossary of Mirror Reversal,

ENDMEME

Belief, even certainty, that the world will be destroyed by God.  With all the perils threatening mankind cited at the end of Chapter Nine, the endmeme is the most unbearable to contemplate:  powerful alpha Membots blowing up the Earth endmeme because they believe it’s God’s will.  The other treats mostly stem from mankind’s fecundity, this one from sheer stupidity.

The endmeme is important, all right, because it has the potential to annihilate all life on the planet in a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Thanks,
Rich Goscicki
