    Upton Sinclair's The Jungle and Ralph Nader's Unsafe at any speed are both examples of the desire to expose societal problems in America.

    For example, Upton Sinclair's book was focused on the terrible conditions of the meatpacking industry during the early 20th century. Even though this was supposed to be a fiction novel, there were many elements of truth in this book as Sinclair used information from individuals who worked within this industry. This book inspired President Teddy Roosevelt to pass the Meat Inspection Act of 1906.

    On the other hand, Ralph Nader's book was used to expose the dangers of automobiles. In this book, Nader discusses how car manufacturers were reluctant to put in basic safety features like seat belts. The ultimate goal was to get the government involved in order to make it mandatory for cars to have certain safety features.
