Abstract
A theory of the thermoelectric power due to the interlayer hopping assisted by spin fluctuations has been developed. The prediction of the theory capt ures the main features of experiment. Thus, we argue that the c-axis thermo electric power exhibiting metallic behaviour while the c-axis electronic co nductivity appears to be nonmetallic in the underdoped cuprate may be prope rly understood within the theory.
