What is the author's purpose for writing the biography, Factory Man?

One of the main reasons Macy decided to write, “Factory Man” was that none of the major newspapers or magazines wrote about the devastating impact that globalization had on the small town furniture workers in the south. When Chinese manufacturers began to undercut prices for the same furniture designs, retailers flocked to them, plants were closed and jobs were lost. Economists believed globalization was inevitable and that it should be allowed to run its natural course without interference.
