Particularly the rise of a technocratic organisation hellbent on global domination and the subjugation of everybody on the planet in That Hideous Strength. He was a genius and prophet. Parts of That Hideous Strength make my blood run cold and are eerily prescient given the circumstances we're living through. NICE would have made Teilhard de Chardin rock hard.
