The author provides an excellent survey on the most important contributions to Fermat's Last Theorem from its proposal to its proof by \textit{A. Wiles} and \textit{R. Taylor} and Wiles in their celebrated papers [see Zbl 0823.11029 and Zbl 0823.11030]. Especially for the last 15 years until its solution a very lively presentation is given. Although there do already exist quite a number of surveys on Fermat's problem, reading of this article is highly recommended.
