Pais, A

Approximate unitary symmetry together with considerations of gauge invariance and minimality of interactions is discussed in an attempt to answer the parity question. It is assumed that CP invariance is a universal law involving parity and characteristic properties of strong and electro magnetic interactions, which lead to P conservation, but does not apply to weak interactions.
