This dissertation was made possible through the help and involvement of many different people and organizations. I should like to thank the Universities of Durham, Cambridge and Oxford in England for their generosity in allowing me to use their facilities. I am deeply indebted to the following people: My supervisor, Prof D. G. Geldenhuys, who remained optimistic in the face of my initial struggles. Frik Nothling, for his frequent advice and encouragement, but also for his willingness to sacrifice time in an already hectic schedule by arranging the binding and submission of the dissertation in South Africa. My wife, Elmi, who has earned our keep in England and without whose love, courage and support not one of the following pages could have been written. She has journeyed with me in my intellectual explorations and has been my inspiration in tortuous times of difficult progress and self-doubt. To all those in South Africa and England who prayed for us, thank you. Soli Deo Gloria! CONTENTS Page CHAPTER 1 Introduction.
