Summary
In his paper, explicit formulae are given for any irreducible spinor, in any number of dimensions, which is symmetric in its suffixes. The method employed in determining these formulae is immediately applicable to the task of obtaining explicit forms for spinors which are unsymmetric in their suffixes.
