  We demonstrate that refinements in the analysis of inclusive scattering data
on light nuclei enable the extraction of, generally accurate, values of the
neutron magnetic form factor G_M^n(Q^2). In particular, a recent
parametrization of ep inclusive resonance excitation enables a reliable
calculation of the inelastic background, and as a consequence a separation of
quasi-elastic and inelastic contributions. A far larger number of data points
than previously considered is now available for analysis and enables a more
reliable extraction of G_M^n from cross section and R_T data on D and He. The
achieved accuracy appears mainly limited by the present uncertainties in the
knowledge of proton form factors and by the accuracy of the data.
