    Introduction: Exploring Non-Discrimination in Turkey
    (Springer International Publishing, 2022) Yilmaz,G.
    The principle of non-discrimination is at the heart of the international law, being “the only human rights explicitly included in the United Nations(UN) Charter, and they appear at the beginning of virtually every major human rights instrument” (Farrior, S. (2017). Introduction. In S. Farrior (Ed.). Equality and Non-discrimination under International Law Volume II. (xii-xxiii).London and New York: Routledge., p. xi). The principle requires equality of all persons without any discrimination on the basis of various elements like race, color, ethnicity, language, sex, sexual orientation, religion, political opinion, social or economic origin. © The Editor(s)(if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2022.

    The Invisibles: The Case of the Seasonal Agricultural Workers of Turkey From a Non-Discrimination Perspective
    (Springer International Publishing, 2022) Gençoglu,F.; Gençoğlu, Funda; Fistikçi,A.C.; Gençoğlu, Funda; Political Science and Public Administration; Political Science and Public Administration
    Above are the famous first words of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (1948) establishing, decades ago, the basic premises of the international human rights law. As the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) recognizes, however, discrimination undermines a true fulfillment of these premises and “the fight against discrimination remains a daily struggle for millions around the globe. For millions of people globally, the struggle to extract themselves from situations of discrimination at almost every turn in their daily lives is an impossible ambition” (OHCHR 2009). © The Editor(s)(if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2022.

    Nutritional Management of Pediatric Ent Infections
    (Springer International Publishing, 2021) Kalyoncu,Z.B.; Norde,M.M.; Özel,H.G.
    Nutrition is the science that investigates how nutrients and food compounds nourish one’s body and interact with health and disease [1]. Although the relationship between diet and disease occurrence, prevention and treatment have been studied extensively [2], the interaction between nutritional status and ENT infections has been heavily understudied, especially among pediatric populations [3]. Nutritional care should be as specialized as medicine; thus, nutritional management of ENT infections needs to be tailored towards the personalized medical needs of the patients. Healthy and balanced nutrition not only maintains proper growth and development in children, but also decreases the risk of morbidity and mortality [4]. As both health care practitioners and parents become more aware of the impact of nutrition in acute and chronic diseases, it is essential to understand nutrition’s role in managing health and disease risk reduction [5]. Also, since parents feed their children daily, empowering them with the knowledge of a healthy diet would enhance their involvement and confidence in caring for the patients. Therefore, the aim of this chapter is to provide an overview of the nutritional assessment and treatment to reduce the burden of pediatric ENT infections. © The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2022.

    Non-Discrimination of Religious Minorities in Turkey: a Fairytale
    (Springer International Publishing, 2022) Akdemir,T.G.
    In Turkey, the principle of non-discrimination on the basis of religion has been a controversial issue given the fragility of the identity politics; the concept of minority, citizenship, unifying principles and religion being a gluing factor of society. © The Editor(s)(if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2022.

    Fixed Point Theory in Metric Type Spaces
    (Springer International Publishing, 2016) Agarwal,R.P.; Karapinar,E.; O’regan,D.; Roldán-López-De-Hierro,A.F.
    Written by a team of leading experts in the field, this volume presents a self-contained account of the theory, techniques and results in metric type spaces (in particular in G-metric spaces); that is, the text approaches this important area of fixed point analysis beginning from the basic ideas of metric space topology. The text is structured so that it leads the reader from preliminaries and historical notes on metric spaces (in particular G-metric spaces) and on mappings, to Banach type contraction theorems in metric type spaces, fixed point theory in partially ordered G-metric spaces, fixed point theory for expansive mappings in metric type spaces, generalizations, present results and techniques in a very general abstract setting and framework. Fixed point theory is one of the major research areas in nonlinear analysis. This is partly due to the fact that in many real world problems fixed point theory is the basic mathematical tool used to establish the existence of solutions to problems which arise naturally in applications. As a result, fixed point theory is an important area of study in pure and applied mathematics and it is a flourishing area of research. © David Ralph 2015.

    Sustainable Software Engineering: Curriculum Development Based on Acm/Ieee Guidelines
    (Springer International Publishing, 2021) Mishra,A.; Mishra,D.
    Climate change risk and environmental degradation are the most critical issues of our society. Our technology-influenced daily lifestyle involves many types of software and apps which are used by society at large, and their use is increasing more than ever before. Sustainability is a significant topic for future professionals and more so for software engineers due to its impact on society. It is crucial to motivate and raise concern among students and faculty members regarding sustainability by including it in the Software Engineering (SE) curriculum. This chapter discusses how sustainability can be included in various courses of the SE curriculum by considering ACM/IEEE curriculum guidelines for the SE curriculum, literature review, and various viewpoints so that SE students can attain knowledge on sustainable software engineering. It also includes an assessment of key competences in sustainability for proposed units in the SE curriculum. © Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2021. All rights reserved.

    Lgbti Rights in Turkey in the 2000s: Inertia Due To Political Resistance
    (Springer International Publishing, 2022) Yilmaz, G.
    The principle of non-discrimination constitutes one of the building blocks of democratic regimes and it promotes rights without discrimination on the basis of race, colour, sex, language, religion, ethnic or social origin, disability, age. Sexual orientation has been added to the list of possible areas for discrimination later on with the developments in the global Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Intersex (LGBTI) rights. © The Editor(s)(if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2022.

    Connective Tissue Manipulation
    (Springer International Publishing, 2022) Sönmezer,E.; Dökmeci,F.; Seval,M.M.; Çetinkaya,Ş.E.
    Connective tissue massage is based on the principle of direct manipulation of the subcutaneous fascia layers creating a response in the autonomic nervous system. There is a neural link between deep tissues and superficial tissues known as “cutaneo-visceral reflexes, " involving autonomic pathways and rich somatic sensory plexuses in the skin and subcutaneous tissues. It has been shown that there is tension in the skin and subcutaneous tissues innervated from the same level of the medulla spinalis with the organ with impaired function. These affected dermatomes are stimulated with a strong pulling motion made in a special sequence in accordance with anatomical structure. Thus, a reflex effect is created in the relevant organ innervated from the same segment as the dermatome. The most important feature that distinguishes CTM from other manual treatment methods is that it has a therapeutic effect by playing a balancing role in the autonomic nervous system. Although its efficacy in pathological problems, such as migraine, constipation, dysmenorrhea, peripheral artery disease, and painful conditions such as fibromyalgia and chronic neck pain, have been demonstrated in different studies in the literature, there have been no studies showing the effectiveness of CTM in patients with OAB. © MIPS MediterraneanIncontinence Pelvic Floor Society 2022.
