It explains the turn towards isolation from society, the development of psychiatric problems, and the lashing out against society. It happens to smart people usually when they are bullied and picked on.
This was blatantly done by expert psychologists as well. And it was proven later that the head of the program was working for the CIA... Ted was MKUltra'd. Straight up.
Great bio on Ted is the Netflix movie Manhunt: Unibomber. After viewing that I read some of his "crazed" writing and discovered much of it makes total sense.
