Even though the episode won a Hugo as well as the 1966-67 Writers Guild of America Award for best teleplay, Ellison has to this day complained bitterly about the way Gene Roddenberry "eviscerated" his original vision. This book presents the original script as the author intended it to be filmed.
I bought this at B&N a few weeks ago. I always wondered what Roddenberry changed that ticked Ellison off. I'm reading it as soon as I'm done with "The Count of Monte Cristo."
