Answer 3

Upton Sinclair wrote this book for a couple of reasons. First
and foremost, he tries to awaken the reader to the terrible
living conditions of immigrants in the cities around the turn of
the century. Harshly critical of the capitalist industrialist system, it led to meat inspection legislation and the Pure Food and Drug Act of 1906. Secondly, he attempts to show the advantages of Socialism in helping to remedy the problems of a society such as the one that existed in Chicago at that time
