"From Koch to Kochi"
Under this subject heading, the Union will try to make classic articles and / or books available to the international readership.  As the header suggests, it should cover the period from the discovery of the etiologic agent of tuberculosis by Robert Koch (and before) to the announcement of the new World Health Organization DOTS strategy by Arata Kochi (and beyond).

Please note: The Union is pleased to have obtained permission from the pertinent copyright holder to make available the following classic publications on tuberculosis (the number will increase over time as we obtain this kind or permission).  We publish the article in question in the original language and, where available, in the English translation.  The order is by year of the original publication.
