THE BRAVE NEW WORLD OF MEMETICS
Probably the cutting edge of our psychological warfare operations today. Here's a site, Meme Central, that gives an introductory look into the field of Memetics. If you have an interest in the intellectual history behind the origins of psychological warfare, multiculturalism, the manipulation of public opinion and what all this has to do with Moby Dick, consult Hunting Captain Ahab: Psychological warfare and the Melville Revival by Clare Spark, Ph.d. Spark is also a recovering commentator for Radio Pacifica and an active contributor to many Listserv's on h-Net. She did some real digging on this book and it is worth the investment of time to digest.
