  A kinetic theory for spin plasmas is put forward, generalizing those of
previous authors. In the model, the ordinary phase space is extended to include
the spin degrees of freedom. Together with Maxwell's equations, the system is
shown to be energy conserving. Analysing the linear properties, it is found
that new types of wave-particle resonances are possible, that depend directly
on the anomalous magnetic moment of the electron. As a result new wave modes,
not present in the absence of spin, appear. The implications of our results are
discussed.
