Arif Sabuncuoğlu This book, which is the first of two volumes prepared for the general mathematics courses taught in the Business Administration and Economics Departments of our universities, has plenty of questions with solutions at the end of each section. The solution to each problem is explained broadly and clearly. Even if proofs of some theorems are not given while the subjects are being treated, it has been tried to geometrically imply why they are so. Most of the theorems and fundamental formulas have been proved.
There are enough examples in the book to explain the theorems and basic information. While introducing a new concept, the relation of this concept with previous concepts was established, and it was tried for our students to learn by understanding that information in the easiest way.

Gülay Budak, Gönül Budak Regardless of the field of activity and scale (size), the management phenomenon has a universal character for all businesses and institutions. The importance of the management phenomenon comes from the fact that it covers the issues that will enable organizations to achieve their goals. Undoubtedly, the effectiveness of the manager increases as he continues to have scientific knowledge and experience in subjects with a scientific content. Thus, managers use the scarce resources of the organization in an effective and efficient way to reach the goals of the organization.
The most difficult aspect of the management profession is "managing people". People, whose expectations, needs and competencies are constantly changing, lead managers to seek different management as an increasingly complex resource.
Management is a rapidly changing and developing field of science. On the one hand, while new concepts, techniques, models and theories are brought to the field of management, on the other hand, many theories whose accuracy and validity were defended for a period of time can be disabled or transformed by being criticized.
Our Business Management book covers many current topics that will contribute to the knowledge of undergraduate, graduate and doctoral students studying in the field of business administration, as well as managers and manager candidates working at different levels of the business world.

Adil Oğuzhan, Aylin Alın, Deniz İnan, Dilek Altaş, Emel Kuruoğlu Kandemir, Ersin Kıral, Gülin Tabakan, Gülsen Kıral, Handan Yolsal, Latif Öztürk, Nazif Çalış, Özlem Akay, Özlem Türkşen, Özlem Yorulmaz, Seda Şengül Statistics is widely used in all fields of science and many business fields because software package programs have developed by following theoretical developments. In an environment dominated by uncertainty, it is extremely important to ensure that statistics, which are used as a tool for making the right decision, are learned and comprehended both theoretically and practically. In our opinion, the most important feature of this book is that it has been prepared in such a way as to support the distance education system and self-learning effort, which has become widespread with the Covid-19 epidemic, both theoretically and practically. Therefore, in the book; first, the theoretical explanation about each section was made comprehensively, interpreted in detail with solved examples, and then the examples related to the subjects were applied using Excel, SPSS, Matlab or R software packages. Thus, it is aimed to minimize the need for teachers and classroom environment as in traditional formal education. With this book, it is expected that the deficiency in the self-learning, application and interpretation of statistics will be eliminated.

Can Aydın Today, with the rapid rise of information and communication technologies, we see that information systems are used in almost every field. Businesses are also taking steps to produce these systems instead of just using information systems in their business processes. Programming skills are vital in taking these steps. While data analysis and artificial intelligence studies have been used in the solution of many business problems by leaving the theoretical environment in recent years, it has become compulsory for students studying in the field of social sciences, especially in the departments of business, economics, finance and management information systems, to take programming education in order to keep up with the developing conditions and to solve their current problems.
In the rapidly developing technology world, the realization of a software idea that comes to your mind is limited to 30 days. In other words, it is necessary not only to think of the idea, but also to implement it quickly. This book provides easy and fast programming education to students in the field of social sciences, explaining the solution of business problems with examples, and enables the development of a wide range of applications from web page design to data analysis, from machine learning to deep learning, which are the usage areas of Python programming language. Even someone who has no programming education, to develop an application using the Python language, it is enough to learn the theoretical information in this book and repeat the applications.

Ergül Han, Ayten Ayşen Kaya Mainly, the problem of underdevelopment and development, which was on the economic, social, cultural and even political agenda of all humanity after the Second World War, naturally led to the emergence of a development literature and to its rapid development over time.
This book covers traditional and contemporary theoretical approaches to development economics and policies that can be followed in practice. In this context, the book covers descriptive and measurement issues related to development and underdevelopment; theories of underdevelopment; capital accumulation and technology problems; financing of development; population, human capital and employment problems; development and foreign trade; resource allocation problem; development and industrialization strategies and finally sustainable development issues are discussed. We believe that our book will be useful not only for our students but also for those who want to acquire basic information on the subject.

Merter Mert In this study, it is aimed to explain the basic information about both development and growth economics and economic design, which is the building block of modern development theory. It is thought that some of the information in the study is important in terms of drawing a framework that will allow a better understanding of New Development. In addition, some important information about the content of economics as a concept is also included in the study in the light of the thoughts of Alfred Marshall and John Maynard Keynes.
The contents of the second edition are briefly as follows: In the first chapter, a conceptual introduction has been made. In the second part, some features of underdeveloped countries are explained using current data. The third chapter describes the colonial past of the underdeveloped countries. In the fourth chapter, the differences between the past and present meanings of development economics are explained. At the end of this section, it is once again emphasized that New Development means economic design. In the fifth chapter, development theories and in the sixth chapter basic information about economic design are given. The seventh chapter is on the objective function as an important element of economic design. In this section, microeconomic objectives are explained by matching them with development objectives. In the eighth chapter, Marshallian, Keynesian and ethical origins of economics and development design are presented. In the ninth chapter, after the basic concepts of economic growth are given, in the tenth chapter, the demand constraint in economic growth is explained. In the eleventh chapter, after presenting the difference between growth and catch-up, demand constraint in the catch-up process is explained in the context of middle-income trap. In the twelfth chapter, the role of foreign direct investments in the capture process is shown using Findlay's model.

Demet Gürüz, Ayşen Temel Eğinli Interpersonal communication begins with two people noticing each other and accepting each other's existence. In this process, the person; It conveys messages with its attitudes, personality, behaviors, what it does and does not do, what it says and does not say.
We are in the age of communication… If we are still talking but not explaining, telling but not being understood, talking but not listening, talking but not listening, talking and listening but still not being able to understand… our verbal and nonverbal messages, the factors that affect or hinder our communication should be questioned before our communication ends.
I guess I didn't understand...
You misunderstood me…
I wish I hadn't said that...
Oh my prejudices...
His tone sounded angry…
He made such an emphasis that…
Your eyes didn't say that, but…
He shook hands as if breaking my fingers…
What a stance it was, it told a lot…
Interpersonal Communication -Information-Impacts-Obstacles- evaluates various aspects of the interpersonal communication process with examples. In this sense, the book will shed light on both researchers who continue their academic studies and anyone who wants to communicate effectively.

Salih Güney The subject of leadership has a history as old as the process of people living collectively. Although it is the most studied, written and researched subject in the world, it is still not fully understood. For this reason, it preserves and will continue to protect its mystery.
The idea of ​​writing this book has occupied my mind for a long time. The reason was that leadership was perceived as a unit. However, later on, my thoughts changed. Writing the book, taking only the leadership unit, did not seem very satisfying. For this reason, it has come to the fore to include issues that are closely related to leadership in the book. Therefore, topics such as decision-making process, cultural structure, personality, communication, motivation, stress and moral structure were included in the book. Within each unit, general evaluations about leadership were made.
Changes and developments in the social, political, economic and technological fields are taking place at a dizzying pace in the world. In such a process of change and development, some basic elements are needed so that companies, institutions and societies do not fall behind. Chief among these is leadership. Because only those who have leadership qualities can bring institutions or societies to the desired welfare levels by including them in the change and development process in accordance with the requirements of the age.
The book was written in a format that can be used by those who prepared it for the management level, as well as associate, undergraduate, graduate and doctoral students. We tried to keep the language as simple as possible. Despite all this, mistakes and shortcomings will definitely be seen. For this reason, we welcome all positive or negative comments or suggestions from readers.

M. Hakan Keskin This work, named 'LOGISTICS HANDBOOK', is the fourth edition of the Turkish version of a project that consists of five books [in Turkish and English]. This study in your hand includes 'Deconstruction of Logistics' in which the academic dimension of logistics is handled, 'Background of Logistics' in which the historical dimension of logistics is given, and 'Winning Logistics: ', 'Logistics in Turks and in Turkey', in which the logistics operations of the Turks, who could not find a place in foreign sources despite their extraordinary successes since their existence, are discussed, 'International Logistics', which gives the details of the logistics that is globalizing with increasing momentum and crossing national borders. It consists of five Turkish books.
During the preparation of this edition, since the volume of the third book titled 'Winning Logistics: TZY', which is more comprehensive than the other four, increased too much to be included in this work, the book in question was published as a separate book by NOBEL AKADEMIK PUBLISHING, with the title SUPPLY CHAIN ​​MANAGEMENT. In the study called Handbook, one of the most important components of logistics,
Considering that the supply chain should be mentioned in some way, the information in the mentioned book is summarized in the Third Chapter of this study.
To put it briefly, this study named 'LOGISTICS HANDBOOK' is a part of the project to create a logistics kit, which consists of two books complementing each other with SUPPLY CHAIN ​​MANAGEMENT, a textbook written in Turkish and English for Turkey, and a basic resource. . All books are given a 'Lesson' [14 weeks in accordance with the Bologna process] to be used in logistics programmes.
'Syllabus', 'Learning Objectives', 'Research and Discussion Topics' and 'Assessment Questions' were added for each section. In addition, faculty members are provided with the opportunity to access [PPT] reflections prepared to facilitate their lectures.

Ramazan Erturgut This work aims to reveal a solid knowledge that emerged as a result of the author's 21 years of working experience in the field of logistics, as well as the researches he made during his time abroad. In the book, the concepts, principles and characteristics related to Logistics and Supply Chain Management are presented in a systematic flow. However, there has been an interest in the classification of current issues affecting the progress of Logistics and Supply Chain Management and new trends shaping research. This book also classifies the relations of Logistics and Supply Chain Management as a scientific discipline with other disciplines by supporting the citations from the leading scientific journals in this field, and thus aims to contribute to filling a gap felt in the national literature.
In the content of the book, logistics activities at the scale of enterprises and institutions are presented with a comprehensive content, in addition, logistics management with global norms, logistics strategy, logistics performance management, logistics education, structural problems of logistics and supply chain, and Logistics Management in Turkey are discussed as a separate chapter. taken. In addition, "Annotated Logistics and International Trade Terms Dictionary" and "Incoterms 2010" add-ons, which contain basic terms in both fields, are included for the benefit of those who are interested in the subject. In this respect, it is considered that the work can be a source work for those who train and train in Logistics and Supply Chain Management, as well as scientists and practitioners in the field.

A. Zafer Acar, A. Murat Köseoğlu Today, product movements within the supply chain have a vital importance both in terms of businesses and in terms of the trade volume of countries. In addition to this importance, a multidisciplinary perspective is needed in order to comprehend the concept of supply chain and examine it from an academic point of view. This versatility is undoubtedly reflected in the publications in the literature. However, it is seen that it is sometimes confused with the concepts of logistics.
This book, on the other hand, considers logistics as part of the supply chain. In this context, the subjects include the basic functions of both logistics and supply chain management processes from logistics management to supply chain. The plan of the book is based on the Supply Chain Operations Reference Model (SCOR), which has been widely accepted by many authors and academics. Based on the SCOR model, the book is divided into six main sections. The first part includes the concepts of logistics and supply chain management and their relations with each other. The second part, planning; third part, procurement and purchasing; fourth part, manufacturing operations; The fifth part is devoted to distribution issues. The last section is devoted to other important issues on the agenda in the field.

Sinan Uğuz Machine learning, which is expressed as a sub-field of artificial intelligence; It is widely used in many fields led by engineering, finance and bioinformatics. In order to develop machine learning applications, it is important to understand some algorithms that contain calculus, linear algebra and statistics theoretically. After learning the theoretical aspects of these algorithms, an application can be developed by coding it with a programming language with an easy and rich library structure such as Python. The theoretical aspects of machine learning algorithms in the book were meticulously examined, and the necessary linear algebra and statistics were also briefly examined. Python applications were developed for each algorithm using problems containing original datasets. People who want to develop applications with Deep Learning, which is a sub-field of machine learning, especially learn the basic information in this book, will provide an important infrastructure. Deep learning architectures will be easier to understand after reading this book.

• Those who are already developing Machine Learning applications,
• Those who prepare dissertations involving Machine Learning and conduct scientific studies in the fields of Science, Engineering and Social Sciences

Adem Esen This work examines the concepts of property, property and market, which are the main subjects of economics, from the perspectives of both Islamic and conventional economics. Goods are the basis of economic life, because goods are the name of the means that meet the needs of people. Man has material and intangible needs. A person pursues them all his life. If his material needs are met, he will be prosperous, and if his intangible needs are met, he will attain happiness. People try to acquire property from the moment they know themselves. The name of owning and owning a property is called property. Property entitles people to that property and provides the right to dispose and use it. This is also called "possession". Normally, people buy the goods by giving their money. The sale process is also done in the bazaar, in the market. The word market, which comes from Italian, is used in the sense of market. The movable goods are both displayed and sold in the bazaars, shops, week markets, stock exchanges, formerly fairs and now fairs. Real estates are bought and sold in the land registry offices of the state.
In this work, the author analyzed the definition and properties of goods, their moral evaluation, the subject of ownership, the ownership of production factors, and the protection of property, both from a secular and Islamic point of view, in his six-part analysis.

Aybeniz Akdeniz Ar The importance of creating strong brands is felt more and more every day in the competitive environment of the business world, where world conditions are changing rapidly, world trade and economic flows are in a new restructuring. There are too many products, too many brands, too much competition in world trade. It is not easy to create a brand in markets with such brand density. The fact that the manufacturer packs the goods produced and puts a name on it and puts it up for sale, "I have created a brand and I am selling it." Thinking strategically and long-term before putting the brand on the market, testing it many times, positioning the brand, promoting it, in short, obtaining a long-term place in the mind of the consumer, is only a very small part of what needs to be done in creating a brand. All of these are the right product, the right strategy, Correct positioning can be achieved by hitting the target right in the middle.
While the importance of brand creation and branding has increased so much in today's markets, in this book, "How to create a brand?" starting from the question "What is a brand?", "What are the strategies to be considered on the way to branding?" answers to the questions were sought.
This book, on the one hand, motivates and guides businesses that have not yet fully overcome the hesitation of creating a brand, and on the other hand, in this age where we feel the need to be a brand in every field, "How can personal and corporate brand creation be?" It has been prepared to help those who are looking for an answer to the question and especially university students, "Brand" courses and "Marketing" courses, based on the importance of the subject.

Recep Kök, Oğuz Kara, Üzeyir Aydın, A. Elif Ay Yalçınkaya For every economics reader, theoretical as much as possible, experience and practical point of view gained within the framework of obtained observations are a necessity. The authors of the microeconomics book you have, especially in the preface and introduction, explain why their books are different from the current Turkish books taught in the field. In short, a method based on "learning by doing" and providing guidance to the students is followed in the book: The book contains a theoretical integrity that will respond to the demands of undergraduate and graduate students. Topics that complement each other are primarily explained with geometric figures; When necessary, the proof mechanism is given importance with the help of algebra. Solved problems in the content, reading passages, sometimes case studies and chapter suffixes that are compatible with the integrity of the subject are at a level that will meet the expectations of both instructors and students who want to be economics readers. As it is known, the more the theories of microeconomics are internalized, the more successful the entrance exams for the profession. The welfare contribution provided by the success of being a good economics reader is always felt.
While working at Nişantaşı University, Professor Recep KÖK, one of the authors of this textbook, is still working at Dokuz Eylül University (2019), Assoc. Oğuz KARA (Duzce University), Assoc. Dr. Üzeyir AYDIN ​​(Dokuz Eylül University), Dr. Lecturer A. Elif AY YALÇINKAYA (Dokuz Eylül University) has revived the “team spirit” again: Authors have published many books, articles, etc. related to the field. It can be said that KÖK's professional experience of more than forty years is the main factor in bringing this work, which is a reputation of common will and effort, to the publication life. With the contribution of our publishing house, we hope that this privileged book, which has been included in the list of Turkish textbooks published in Turkey, will provide significant support to the teaching of economics! Of course, its readers' evaluations and appreciation of the book are beyond any value.

İlhan Tarımer This book, in general, describes the design structures of the elements in the integrated circuit that make up a microprocessor and microcontroller, their functions, and the programming of a computer in machine and assembly language. It is emphasized that all internal units of a microprocessor and their functions are understood, then how to program an embedded system with microprocessor is explained, and the programmatic operation of microcomputers used in both offices and industrial life is explained. In the last part of the book, various object application examples are given to illustrate the business and industrial uses of microcomputers.
This work, called Microcomputer Systems, aims to reach a wide readership and at the same time to be a source book in the field of microcomputers, by describing microcomputers at a basic level, and by comprehensively addressing their internal and external structures, architectures and features to advanced programming commands. It is for this purpose that basic microprocessor or microcontroller structures are based on, especially in the parts of the book where the design structures and programming methods are explained. Of course, the number of bits of microcomputers in use, that is, the length of words they can process at a time is larger. However, it will be easier to learn the instructions of a microcomputer where the number of bits that make up the word length is 8-bit and to understand its programming in machine language.
The programming examples given in the book are program snippets that have been tried in various microprocessor programming simulators. It should be noted that their opcodes will vary according to microprocessor types. In addition, examples of how some assembly programs are written and used within the operating systems of personal computers are also given.
Examples of connection, programming and operation of some microcomputers to the Internet of Things, which are offered for use in an embedded way, can be found in the book as real-life applications. I wish the readers good health and success with the hope that this book can serve as a guide for advanced microcomputer object applications.

İbrahim Küçükkoç Assembly lines are one of the mass production systems frequently used in production and may be one of the most successful application areas of Industry 4.0 technology in the near future. Assembly lines, which are mostly used in the production of complex products, enable to increase the output per unit time by making the most effective use of production resources. Well-balanced assembly lines also increase the competitiveness level of enterprises by enabling them to meet developing and changing customer demands on time and with minimum cost.
This book has been prepared for both undergraduate and graduate students who want to learn about assembly line planning, as well as line managers and engineers working on line balancing in businesses. Includes tools and techniques for effectively balancing the most common types of assembly lines in the industry. The assembly line balancing issue was first handled and modeled in its simplest form, and solution methods were explained through examples. Afterwards, many real-life constraints were added and different types of problems were explained in detail. At the end of the chapters, study questions are included.
In addition to the heuristic methods, this book, which includes the genetic algorithm application, which is one of the meta-heuristic algorithms, and which is prepared for practice, is presented in the appendices of the GAMS program codes of the mathematical models developed.

Osman Okka The purpose of this book is to show engineers the time value of money in economics and business and the calculation of cash flows of implemented projects and to present methods to be used in case of comparison with other projects. Because behind every expenditure, every decision and every investment there is a financial front. The book “To the Engineering Economy”; It is a resource that can be easily benefited by engineers, operators, economists, investors, bankers, in short, anyone who has a business with money.

Osman Okka Have technical knowledge and expertise in their field; The purpose of the engineer as a technical staff who produces goods and services in the enterprise by using people, machinery, equipment, materials, equipment and processes; To achieve maximum production by using inputs such as materials, resources, time and technology.
As long as limited and costly resources cannot be used optimally and the highest possible values ​​cannot be produced, a firm will fail in the market against its competitors and perhaps have to withdraw from the market. In order for the resources to be used optimally, the company must have an important technology, make its technological development a continuous process and be ahead of its competitors in technology. Every decision regarding the use of resources in the firm has an economic aspect. Resources must be used productively, that is, efficiently, and must provide maximum returns. For this reason, the engineer has to take all measures and apply the necessary methods for the efficient use of resources besides the management and in his field. The economic decisions taken may be short-term and long-term, and the expenditures will be short-term and long-term. If the economic decisions are short-term, that is, they cover a year, they are income expenditures, and if they cover more than one year, they are investment expenditures.
Engineer; How will it make income expenditures and investment expenditures, and how will it save on these expenditures? These are the subjects of engineering economics. Efficient use of resources, preparation of projects, making investments, executing the project and putting it into operation and similar processes continue throughout the life of the company and the engineer takes his place at every stage of the project. In this respect, it is very important to equip an engineer with knowledge of "Engineering Economics" and to act rationally. This work aims to give you this information.

Tahir Khaniyev - İhsan Ünver - Zafer Küçük - Tülay Kesemen In this book titled "Solution Problems in Probability Theory", we have included the original problems we have created as well as the problems in Turkish, Azerbaijani, English and mostly Russian sources. Our main aim in this study is to enrich students' mathematical thinking structures by enabling them to see as many problems as possible. We believe that this problem and exercise book, the first edition of which has been published, will be useful to all students taking probability courses.
In the first part of the book, after giving examples on “Basic Concepts of Probability Theory”, briefly permutation and combination, there are many examples suitable for n >2 dice rolls, especially among the examples suitable for the classical probability definition. In addition, examples that use probability rules related to the combination of at least two events are given weight. The probabilities of independent events, fully independent events and conditional probability, Bayes' theorem and problems complying with the total probability formulas are prepared. Finally, in the first chapter, very comprehensive geometric probability questions are solved.
The second part is devoted to discrete and continuous probability distributions. Bernoulli, binomial, discrete regular, geometric, negative binomial, hyper geometric, Poisson distributions from discrete distributions, regular, exponential, normal, Gamma, Weibull, Beta, Cauchy distributions from continuous distributions are discussed.
In the third chapter, problems on "Numerical and Functional Characteristics of Random Variables" are expressed and their solutions are presented to the reader in the form of exercises. In this section, the expected value, variance, higher order moments, moment generating and characteristic functions of random variables are examined.
We believe that it will be very useful to the faculty members who recommend this book as a supplementary book in our universities and to the students who apply to benefit from it.

Memmedağa Memmedli, Dursun Aydın This textbook, which was written for undergraduate and graduate students, covers the second part of the "Probability and Statistics" course taught at universities, statistics and applications.

Ü. Serdar Serdaroğlu In this book, the changing economic financial conditions in the Ottoman Empire after the declaration of the Tanzimat Ferman, both in terms of its content and social, legal and economic influence, were shaped around the idea of ​​establishing a bank, which was one of the new practices for that period. As a matter of fact, the idea of ​​'establishing a state bank' for the Ottomans and the dynamics and intellectual infrastructure of its implementation is an important economic history event that needs to be examined.
This book in your hand examines the organizational characteristics of Dersaadet Bank, the first example of the Ottoman banking activities started in the second half of the 19th century, and the economic conditions of the period in which it started to operate, as well as the financial and commercial dimensions of its mission, with the help of Ottoman archive sources. This study has tried to show how the trade and business networks of the Tanzimat Period were shaped through financial markets, the nature of the entrepreneurial networks owned by the partnerships of merchants and bankers, and what features they contain in this sense, through the records of Dersaadet Bankası. This book, which can be considered as an essay on the purpose of the bank's establishment, the close relationship of the policy transactions it carried out with foreign trade and the Ottoman monetary system, and the revealing of the Ottoman entrepreneurial business networks through this experience, gives the reader a thematic overview of the 'Ottoman History of Economics, Business and Finance' literature. offers pain.

Halit Keskin, Ali Ekber Akgün, İpek Koçoğlu The book Organization Theory has been written to introduce the discipline of organization theory to the reader, to convey different perspectives, topics and theories in this field, and to create an infrastructure that can evaluate them. In the book, from the 19th century, when modernism, which emerged with the positivist approach in social sciences, shed light on the theory of organization, how the theory of organization developed until the 21st century, when the postmodernist approach was dominant in organization theory, which approaches were dominated by the theory of organization at different times, between approaches. It is aimed to systematically convey to the reader how conflicts are reflected in organizational theory and what difficulties they create in understanding organizations. While explaining how the theory of organization emerged and developed from a historical perspective, the book also aims to illuminate how social change overlaps with developments in other fields of science and its philosophical development as well as chronologically.
For effective learning of organizational theory, the diversity and complex nature of the field must first be acknowledged. Rather than trying to reduce the theory of organization to a single point of view, it is necessary to examine and enrich it within the framework of different perspectives of many paradigms. In this book, the complexity of organizational theory and its relevance to management practices as well as to social life are revealed by critical and distinctive assessments of different approaches, beyond the coherent and complementary explanations brought by the isomorphic approaches in many books to this field. It is aimed to break stereotypes in organizational theory, to prevent analysis based on a single paradigm, to prepare a suitable ground for reflexive thinking that is open to discussion and criticism, and to encourage a supra-paradigmatic understanding. Ultimately, the reader is expected to be able to understand the organization from different perspectives, think critically, move organizational theory beyond existing thought patterns, and develop enriching theoretical dialogues.

Salih Güney The reality underlying the success of organizations in today's globalization process is organizational internal effectiveness and efficiency. Because in difficult market conditions, organizations can continue their existence as long as they keep efficiency and productivity at high levels. The basic key to bringing efficiency and productivity to the desired levels is to know the "organizational structure" well.
Organizational behavior becoming a scientific discipline is very recent. However, the basic subject of organizational behavior, the human being and his productive work is very old. The interest of all scientists working on the organization has always focused on people and their efficiency.
People take part in an organizational structure at a certain period of their lives. The existence of people in organizational life depends on their success. This is closely related to the personal development of people. In this direction, Behavioral Sciences and Organizational Behavior trainings gain importance.
This book, whose chapter titles and topics were chosen primarily based on the needs of those who aim to be successful in business life, enables individuals to take a closer look at themselves and their business lives.

Yılmaz Akgündüz It is possible for organizations to reach their goals, by using their resources effectively and efficiently. The most important resource that organizations have is their employees, who are social and psychological assets. Understanding, influencing and directing the behavior of employees in the organization is the main focus of the field of organizational behavior. In this book, which consists of fifteen chapters, classical and contemporary organizational behavior issues are presented together.

Azize Ergeneli Organizational behavior is to understand the behavior of people working in the organization, both as individuals and as group members, so that organizations can be managed effectively. Understanding behaviors and their causes is important because it allows managers to predict the future behavior of individuals, to direct and control them in line with the goals of the organization. This book has been prepared with the development of the book called Organization and Human, which was written to provide both theoretical information and guidance on what can be done in practice for people who are candidates for management, but is completely exhausted.
For this purpose, the book consists of two parts: Organization and individual. In the part of the organization, the definition of the organization is given and the studies that require the definition of the organization as a socio-technical system are included, the interaction between the organization, the environment, technology and the organizational structure and its relations with the working individuals are mentioned.
In the individual part, first of all, the individual differences that make a person special as someone working in the organization are discussed. It has been tried to explain the formation of the personality traits of the individual and the factors affecting it, the learning process that has an important effect on his personality, the effect of what he has learned on his attitudes and how they shape his perception, and finally what causes his behavior.
Individuals may behave differently as a group member than when they are alone. Since the employees in organizations have to be in at least one work group, the behavior of the individual in the group has been tried to be explained, so that the people who will be managers are given theoretical and practical information about how they should manage individuals as a group member. In this section, it has been tried to convey information to the manager candidates about establishing a healthy communication, motivating the employees correctly, leading them effectively, explaining the reasons for the conflicts and stress they experience and how they can cope with it.

Kadir Torun, Murat Göral, Onur Kavak, Özkan Şahin, Özlem Balaban, Öznur Bozkurt, Sağbetullah Meriç It is possible to hear from almost everyone who works in this field that many reference books referenced while doing research on entrepreneurship are not different from general business books. There are very few academic books that deal with the concept of entrepreneurship, which differentiates with the change in technology, and evaluate the issues with a current approach without moving away from the main field of entrepreneurship. This book is a candidate to be a bedside book for entrepreneurs, entrepreneur candidates, academics, students, researchers and all parties interested in this subject, showing how entrepreneurs in the digital age can produce successful results and supporting all the issues they cover with current examples. In this book, the characteristics of successful entrepreneurs, entry of entrepreneurs to national or international markets, creating competitiveness, virtual entrepreneurship, the effect of industry 4.0 and society 5.0 on entrepreneurship, current areas of entrepreneurship, issues that entrepreneurs should consider in obtaining effective financial resources, social entrepreneurship, entrepreneurship. The importance of ethics, the impact of universities on entrepreneurship, the concept of startup, the innovation strategies of entrepreneurs and creating a business model, which is the most important building block in the success of an enterprise, are discussed.

Saim Kılıç – Ali Alp When the Boss, who founded and grew his company with great difficulty, transfers the management of his company to a professional manager called the CEO / General Manager, that's when the problems begin to arise. Because, unfortunately, the saying of our forefathers, “the agent is like a principal”, is not always valid in company management. Alright;
Why can't the CEO (deputy) be like the Boss (principal)?
• Should the boss really be afraid of handing over the management of his company to a CEO?
•What are the common unethical behaviors of CEOs? Why and when do they exhibit these behaviors?
•How can the boss be protected from the CEO's potential wrong/unethical behavior?
• In what way the company's management system and Boss-CEO relations are designed, the saying “the agent is like a principal” is valid in the company management?
The book “The CEO of the Boss”, written by Saim Kılıç and Ali Alp, answers all these questions with an impartial perspective, plain language and concrete examples; explains the ways in which the ideal CEO of the boss can be created. This book, which includes many recommendations based on years of experience and observations, is an invaluable guide for bosses and CEOs alike.

Kenan AYDIN Depending on the socio-economic developments in Turkey, the retail sector has gained a certain momentum especially since the mid-1980s and has come to a position where it can compete with retailing in the USA and EU. It would be appropriate to emphasize some basic facts in the development process of retailing:
• While the development of supermarkets, hypermarkets and shopping malls was at the forefront in Turkey, discount stores have become more popular in recent years; departmental (sectioned) stores either disappeared or changed in size and settled in shopping malls instead of independent stores.
• Local retailers have come to an important position in addition to the entry of foreign capital into the market. Besides organized retail, traditional retailers still have a significant share in the total retail market.
• The share of e-commerce in total retail sales is increasing rapidly in the world and in Turkey. It is estimated that the share of e-commerce in the world in 2020 will be 14.60%.
• Traditional single-channel retailing is not sufficient to meet consumer needs. For this reason, compatible omnichannel retailing has become a necessity.
• With the “One Belt One Road” project announced in 2013, China seeks to develop its global strategy in search of a new order in the new era. This new strategy of China indicates that the economic and political balances will be re-established in the world. The project will connect the easternmost of Asia and the European shores of the Atlantic Ocean, and targets 65 countries, including Turkey, and a population of more than 3 billion. These markets have reached saturation, especially Walmart and Carrefour, and mobilized the main retailers of the USA and the West.
• “Industry 4.0” introduced by Germany in 2015 and “Society 5.0” developed by Japan foresee new approaches. These new approaches will change the way retail does business, as it does in other industries. Retail decision makers will pay more attention to topics such as artificial intelligence and big data analytics in order to understand consumer trends and behaviors.

S. Onur Karlık If we raise our heads and look around us carefully, we can see where consumerism has reached in the world. The opportunities created by all this consumption volume cause companies to compete with each other. The more customers they can attract, the more competitive advantage they will have. At this point, understanding consumer behavior is crucial. Since behavior is directly related to an individual's personality, analyzing personality traits might help in understanding the behaviors that consumers will display. Marketing practitioners who establish a relationship between personality traits and consumer behavior and recommend sales promotions according to this relationship will always be one step ahead of their competitors. This book aims to analyze the relationship between personality traits and consumer decision-making styles and predict how consumers are likely to choose sales promotions that are framed. Moreover, marketing practitioners can find an informative Executive Summary at the end of the book. The book gives a general idea about personality traits, personality theories and consumer decision-making process that may help undergraduate and graduate students interested in this field.

Abdullah Kuzu, Ahmet Sağlam, Ali Oluk, Feray Uğur Erdoğmuş, Hayriye Ayşe Oluk, İbrahim Çelik, Mehmet Kara, Mesut Türk, Özgen Korkmaz, Recep Çakır, Volkan Kukul, Yavuz Ünal In recent years, an important paradigm shift has occurred in programming education, and it has been adopted that high-level thinking skills can be gained by giving programming education. In other words, it has been realized that in addition to raising programmers, high-level thinking skills of individuals can be improved by giving programming education. For this reason, it has been accepted by many countries that it is not possible for programming education to be limited to vocational technical education and engineering education, and that this education should be given to individuals at an earlier age. In this book, it has been tried to discuss all aspects of programming for students who receive this education at an early age, with which tools, which approaches, which skills should be planned, how the education should be implemented and how it should be evaluated at the end of the education. In addition, sample teaching designs have been tried to be presented in the necessary sections. We hope that the book will contribute to our colleagues who teach programming or do academic studies in this field, our graduate students, teachers and teacher candidates.

Aziz Kutlar Today, time series or similar courses are taught in economics, business, health and engineering departments of universities. Researchers doing postgraduate education in these departments are much more interested in time series. The most important reason for this is observing how a series of variables change over time, wondering how these variables will take shape in the future, and being the subject of academic studies.
This book does not go into much of the theory or mathematics of time series. Only mandatory equations are included. Most of the time series employees see the problem of how to create a suitable model with a more suitable program, not the mathematics. We also planned to use a methodology that can be easily understood by every researcher, by following a simpler, more understandable and more easy-to-understand way. You will notice this easily when you start working.
