Quoting from this article in the Michigan Daily:

|One of his bombs was intended for University Psychology 
|Prof. James McConnell in 1985. McConnell was not hurt. 
|His assistant, Nicklaus Suino, sustained flesh wounds to his a
|arm and abdomen. The link between Kaczynski and McConnell, 
|who died in 1990, is unclear. They never met. 
|
|Many suspect that he targeted McConnell after reading his 
|textbook, "Understanding Human Behavior," which clashed 
|with many of the Unabomber's beliefs in the "Manifesto" he 
|published in 1995.
|
|The manifesto claims the Industrial Revolution led to "widespread 
|psychological suffering" and said technology would cause "social 
|disruption and psychological suffering." 

And chew on this:

|He began to have nightmares. In them, he was constantly hounded 
|by organized society, which he usually manifested as psychologists. 
|The psychologists tried to control his mind with tricks, causing him 
|to grow angrier and angrier. Eventually, this man who did not bend - 
|not even in the world of dreams - would break. He would kill the 
|psychologists as well as their allies, and afterward, feel relief and 
|liberation. Then, though, his victims would spring back up. As time 
|went by, he grew more successful in keeping them dead by 
|concentrating hard enough.

One needs to read the paragraphs before and after this paragraph
to understand what was driving him -- something very common in
young college undergraduates.
