Review text

[For the entire collection see Zbl 0746.00080.] In this entertaining article the author presents a lively discussion of aspects of the life of Sophie Germain and, in particular, her relationship with Gauss. He then discusses various aspects of Sophie Germain prime pairs (that is, of the form \(p,2p+1\)).
