Abstract
Our considerations of the last chapters showed that the free Dirac equation exhibits all of the properties of covariance. Moreover positive-energy solutions possess the correct behaviour in the nonrelativistic limit. We consider now the solutions of the free Dirac equation with a new approach better suited to the covariant formulation and, later on, for the field-theoretical applications.
