The concepts of angular momentum, spin and magnetic moment are worked out using standard quantum mechanical formalism. The concepts of intrinsic spin of a pointlike particle is contrasted with the intrinsic angular momentum of composite particles. The Larmor frequency and the magnetic resonance of non-interacting spins are introduced. The quantum statistics of a system of spins is overviewed, before introducing the thermodynamics of a spin system in a static frame of reference. Nuclear magnetic phase transitions are briefly reviewed.
