I would hardly call anything by the Thernstrom's "seminal." I liked his earlier social history work, then heard about the classroom incident he publicized as a mind changer. Turned out the students in the room contested his version, vigorously. She is, of course, and has been, for some time, very right wing.

So rather than seminal, it's something to be read with great care. I would expect to see the ideological agenda trumping the data.
