Corruption takes many different forms and the systems that enable
it are complex and challenging. To best understand corruption, one
needs to examine how it operates in practice. Understanding
Corruption tells the story of how corruption happens in the real
world, illustrated through detailed case studies of the many
different types of corruption that span the globe. Each case study
follows a tried and tested analytical approach that provides key
insights into the workings of corruption and the measures best used
to tackle it. The case studies examined include examples of
corporate bribery, political corruption, facilitation payments,
cronyism, state capture, kleptocracy, asset recovery, offshore
secrecy, reputation laundering and unexplained wealth, and actors
include businesses, governments, politicians, governing bodies and
public servants.

The Kurschak Mathematics Competition is the oldest high school
mathematics competition in the world, dating back to 1894. This
book is a continuation of Hungarian Problem Book III and takes the
contest through 1963. Forty-eight problems in all are presented in
this volume. Problems are classified under combinatorics, graph
theory, number theory, divisibility, sums and differences, algebra,
geometry, tangent lines and circles, geometric inequalities,
combinatorial geometry, trigonometry and solid geometry. Multiple
solutions to the problems are presented along with background
material. There is a substantial section entitled 'Looking Back',
which provides additional insights into the problems. Hungarian
Problem Book IV is intended for beginners, although the experienced
student will find much here. Beginners are encouraged to work the
problems in each section and then to compare their results against
the solutions presented in the book. They will find ample material
in each section to help them improve their problem-solving
techniques.
