Response to Taeuber-James, Cain-Goldberger and Morgan.
Coleman, James S.; Hoffer, Thomas
Sociology of Education, v56 n4 p219-34 Oct 1983
The existence of private schools does not necessarily lead to greater school segregation as Taeuber-James argue. Cain-Goldberger are not only incorrect in their discussion of methodology but they also misinterpret the data and misquote the authors. Morgan's efforts to use new data on Catholic schools are applauded. (IS)
