“Lewis is basically arguing that in a world governed by manipulation, control, domination, there must arise by definition two classes of people: manipulators and manipulatees, or conditioners and the conditioned as he calls them. There will be those who have the technical competencies for control over nature, and then there will be the supposed beneficiaries of such competencies who, being mere products of nature, are nevertheless vulnerable to becoming objects of that control.”
