the same way, or grant exactly the same rights to both groups. Whether we should do so will depend on the nature of the members of the two groups. The basic principle of equality, I shall argue, is equality of consideration; and equal consideration for different beings may lead to different treatment and different rights.

NUMERICAL METHODS FOR LARGE EIGENVALUE PROBLEMS

Several books dealing with numerical methods for solving eigenvalue prob-lems involving symmetric (or Hermitian) matrices have been written and there are a few software packages both public and commercial available. The book by Parlett [148] is an excellent treatise of the problem. Despite a rather strong
