The book named; "Removing Disabilities through Empathy" appeared last week. It was designed and edited by me. It includes 50 real life stories of disabled people_ their problems and solutions. The members of the Association for Spinal Cord Paralytics (www.tofd.org.tr) and my senior students from the Educational faculty of Bogazici university prepared the storied inside. The book is sold by the Association for Continuous Improvement (www.sugeder.org) and the income of it will be spent for the "Empowerment of the disabled people project" living in Hüsnü Ayık Center of TOFD in Gürpınar and for the next editions of the book.
