Resumo

We review various inequalities for Mills' ratio (1 - Φ)= Ø, where Ø and Φ denote the standard Gaussian density and distribution function, respectively. Elementary considerations involving finite continued fractions lead to a general approximation scheme which implies and refines several known bounds.
