Abstract

The gold-plated theoretical predictions for polarized deep inelastic lepton-nucleon scattering will be discussed within the framework of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). Experimental data from the Stanford accelerator will be compared with theoretical predictions. The spin distribution inside the nucleon will be described in parton language. A very brief discussion of recent developments in non-perturbative QCD is included as a prelude to serious theoretical spin physics.
