Abstract
A general discussion of the vacuum expectation value for the product of two fields shows how the structure depends upon the integral or half-integral nature of the spin. When this is compared with the statement of statistics as the requirement that fields commute or anticommute for points in space-like relation, at distances greater than any specified amount, the connection between spin and statistics follows.Keywords
