Everett Rogers is the foundational researchers in diffusion theory. His book Diffusion of Innovations was originally published in the 1970s and summarized the field up to then. Since then he has updated it regularly.

\subsubsection{Social Physics, Econophysics, Agent-Based Modeling}
There is a significant field of researchers who have engaged with the idea of social contagion and diffusion from the disciplines of economics and physics. Many of these papers are published in the arxiv.org. Papers in this area can also be found within the subjects of complexity, agent-based modeling, even chaos.
\begin{itemize}
\item Recent articles in Social and Information Networks, cs.SI. \href{http://arxiv.org/list/cs.SI/recent}{http://arxiv.org/list/cs.SI/recent}
\item Recent articles in Physics and Society, soc-ph. \href{http://arxiv.org/list/physics.soc-ph/recent}{http://arxiv.org/list/physics.soc-ph/recent}

\item Searching by epidemiology at arxiv finds many articles that are on disease epidemiology.

\subsubsection{Some skeptical rejoinders}
\begin{itemize}
\item Shalizi, C. R., \& Thomas, A. C. (2011). Homophily and Contagion Are Generically Confounded in Observational Social Network Studies. Sociological Methods \& Research, 40(2), 211???239. doi:10.1177/0049124111404820. Shalizi and Thomas present mathematical and statistical reasons for why it is difficult to distinguish homophily (people with like traits grouping together) from contagion (people spreading trait/idea from one person to another).
