Abstract
I introduce spin in field theory by emphasizing the close connection between quantum field theory and quantum mechanics. First, I show that the spin-statistics connection can be derived in quantum mechanics without relativity or field theory. Then, I discuss path integrals for spin without using spinors. Finally, I show how spin can be quantized in a path-integral approach, without introducing anticommuting variables.
