The argument avoids the use of the spinor calculus and also works in 1+2 dimensions. It is expected to be a progress towards a general spin-statistics theorem including also (1+2)-dimensional theories with braid group statistics.LATEX, 15 pages, no figuresHigh Energy Physics - TheoryA New Approach to Spin and Statisticstext
