"They Say / I Say" identifies the key rhetorical moves in academic writing, showing students how to frame their arguments in the larger context of what others have said and providing templates to help them make those moves.

And we discover, with him, theastonishing truth about "packingtown," thebusy, flourishing, filthy Chicago stockyards, wherenew world visions perish in a jungle of humansuffering. Upton Sinclair, master of the"muckraking" novel, here explores the workingman'slot at the turn of the century- the backbreakinglabor, the injustices of "wage-slavery,"the bewildering chaos of urban life. TheJungle, a story so shocking that itlaunched a government investigation, recreates thisstartling chapter if our history in unflinchingdetail. Always a vigorous champion on political reform,Sinclair is also a gripping storyteller, and his1906 novel stands as one of the most important --and moving -- works in the literature of socialchange.
