A meditative and well-referenced critique of corruption and its corruptible practices, the book is a study of various countries across time and geography that have fought corruption in their own systems. From the ICAC of Hong Kong to the Clean Governance of Georgia and from the fight against Foreign Parked Black Money by a US court to the truly consequential None of the Above vote of Colombia, Srijan Pal Singh, trusted advisor and a close associate of Dr. Kalam, analyses case after case, putting forth cogent arguments on the many dimensions of corruption and how it can be systematically weeded out from India. At once fascinating, absorbing, and informative, The Black Tiger is a must-read for those who wish to know how India can become a superpower in the next few years, as envisioned by Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam.

Ces deux régions déclinent la peinture éphémère selon deux modes distincts : une activité féminine quotidienne et domestique au pays tamoul et une activité occasionnelle, exécutée pour des rites précis et affaire de spécialistes masculins, au Kérala. Ce livre se veut une contribution au patrimoine graphique de l Inde où la retenue linéaire croise l opulence du trait et des matériaux. Un paysage visuel des plus originaux qui illustre simultanément les préceptes des traités d'esthétique, les mythes fondateurs hindous, les croyances locales ou les codes du monde contemporain. Loin de n être que des images vouées à la seule contemplation, les kolam et les kalam sont les pivots des cérémonies autour desquelles s articulent une ou plusieurs composantes que sont la prière, la musique, le chant, la danse, le mimodrame et la possession sans oublier la médecine.
