Memetics is a newly developed theory concerning Information Transmission and cultural evolutionism, which is beginning to become an unattached subject. The concept Memetics? is firstly proposed in the work《The Selfish Gene》, which is written by the biologist of Oxford Richard Dawkins in 1976. It is regarded as a replicator of culture that is a basic unit in cultural evolutionism, similar to the gene of genetics. While Memetics focuses on the theory of meme, which is a new theory to explain the law of cultural evolutionism based on Darwin Evolutionism. The relations between things can be explained from the point of Horizontal and vertical view, and the law of inheritance of culture and cultural evolutionism can also be interpreted. The core concept of Memetics is meme, while the key concept of meme is imitation. Meme is copied, spreaded and developed by imitation.
