This book was written to change the world. For many years, the world peace that people dreamed of remained an unattainable utopia. However, the 'Dersaadet' project tells a story that sets out with the hope of turning this dream into reality. This book, 'The Door to Happiness,' is the first in a four-book series that is planned to be adapted into a 40-episode animated series. It reflects the most beautiful times, history, and culture of Istanbul, revealing the path to world peace. Dersaadet means 'The Gate of Happiness' and is the old name of Istanbul, symbolizing the city's unique beauty. However, in this story, this word transforms into a utopian parallel universe where harmony, advanced technology, and profound peace prevail, representing a life philosophy that encompasses not just a city or place, but the entire world. This philosophy is based on the belief that all living beings are parts of a whole and that world peace is essential for living in a healthy and harmonious Gaia. The heroes of our story, Saadet and her family, take significant steps toward establishing world peace by overcoming their inner struggles and societal obstacles. From Saadet's work-related issues to her personal dramas, this story, which brings together historical figures and fictional characters, will make readers both think and feel deeply. Behind every character and every event lies a powerful message about humanity coming together to create a better world. As you read this book, you will be reminded that world peace is not just a dream but an achievable goal through collective effort. You might even start thinking about your contributions to this path and imagining the beautiful life you will live once world peace is achieved. Become a part of this peaceful world with 'Dersaadet' and let's build a better future together. This is a work of fiction. While, as in all fiction, the literary perceptions and insights are based on experience, all names, characters, places, and incidents either are products of the author's imagination or are used fictitiously. The core idea of this work is that 'It's not the people who are bad, it's the system that's broken.' Therefore, the critique in this book is not directed at individuals, institutions, or groups, but rather at the systems that hinder the goodness within people and prevent us from reaching our true potential. We thank all the wonderful people who inspired this novel and contributed to making it more captivating. World Peace is not impossible; it is inevitable. Enjoy! Happy reading.

The use of music in therapeutic practice in Turkey and the surrounding geographical regions is not a new phenomenon. Until recently, however, the music therapy profession, as it is known in the modern world, had not been institutionalized as a scientific discipline in Turkey. However in recent years, encouraging developments have started to occur in this regard. In this book, readers will find articles about the perceptions of music therapy in Turkey, the evaluation of the dichotomy of postmodernism and modernism in music therapy, an evaluation of Edward William Elgar’s compositions for patients at Powick Mental Hospital, and music educators’ role and place in music therapy, among others. The book represents essential reading for those interested in the field of music therapy studies in Turkey, and also highlights the importance of interdisciplinary studies.

Throughout the course of the twentieth century, as newly formed nations sought ways to develop and formalise their national identity and acquire a range of identifiable national assets, we find new musical canons springing up across the world. But these canons are not arbitrary collections of works imposed on the public by the authorities. Rather they acquire deep resonance and meaning, both as national symbols and as musical repertoires imbued with aesthetic value. This book traces the formation of one such musical canon: the Twelve Muqam, a set of musical suites linked to the Uyghurs, who are one of China's minority nationalities, and culturally Central Asian Muslims. The book draws on Uyghur and Chinese language publications; interviews with musicians and musicologists; field, archive and commercial recordings, and aims towards an understanding of the Twelve Muqam as musical repertoire, juxtaposed with an understanding of the Twelve Muqam as a field of discourse. The book brings together several years' work in this field, but its core arises from a research project under the auspices of the AHRC Centre for Music Performance and Dance.
