Working name used by US screenwriter and author Meyer Dolinsky (1923-1984) for his sf novel, Mind One (1972), in which two psychiatrists discover that a Drug meant to treat psychosis actually engenders Telepathy, and find themselves relating warmly to each other (they are of opposite sexes); as one of them is a Jesuit priest, an element of Religion soon enriches the tale.
Producer Robert Justman planned to film “The Joy Machine” during Season 2. His successor, Fred Freiberger, brought it back in Season 3, when Meyer Dolinsky rewrote the script to include a love story for Scotty. It was meant to be the twenty-fifth episode of the season, but the studio canceled Star Trek after twenty-four episodes.
