Abstract
A sphere theorem for non-axisymmetric Stokes' flow outside/inside a shear-free sphere is stated and proved. Harper's [2] result for axisymmetric flow is deduced as a special case. Several illustrative examples are given and it is found that the drag for external flow is equal to 4pµ a times the velocity which the singularity induces in undisturbed flow at the centre of the sphere.
