This book is the eighth in a series of Proceedings for the S
eminaire Poincar e, which is directed towards a large audience of
physicists and of mathematicians. The goal of this seminar is to
provide up to date information about general topics of great
interest in physics. Both the theoretical and experimental aspects
are covered, with some historical background. Inspired by the
Bourbaki seminar in mathematics in its organization, hence
nicknamed "Bourbaphy", this Poincar e
SeminarisheldattheInstitutHenriPoincar
einParis,withcontributionsprepared

so as to ful?ll the goal of being readable by a large audience of
scientists. This new volume of the Poincar e Seminar series "The
Spin" corresponds to the eleventh such Seminar, held on December 8,
2007. It describes how this once mysterious quantum reality called
spin has become ubiquitous in modern physics from the most
theoretical aspects down to the most practical applications of
miniaturizing electronic and computer devices or helping medical
diagnosis.
