Stephen and Kristin :

Hi -- yes, when I glanced at the undifferentiated NAR (no 95043726), I also
wondered in passing if all
three titles mentioned in the 670s might be by the same author.

I believe Kristin mentioned in her initial message that she has spoken with
this author.
Perhaps she could ask him directly if he wrote all three of the books, in
addition to "How much is a college degree worth to you?" (1963)
If so, Kristin could update the differentiated NAR (no2006122877) as
described,
and then report NAR no 95043726 to be deleted/consolidated
with no2006122877.

cheers,
everett
