The Hidden Zoo Inside You

The Hidden Zoo Inside You

An illustrated guide to pesky organisms and pandemics

Dr. Allen Jones, MD

This illustrated guide provides the foundations of infectious disease required to understand pandemics.

Hand-drawn and printed by the author, it presents a vast amount of information in plain language aided by simple illustrations, breaking down complicated topics into humorous, bite-sized facts. Diseases include Plague, Smallpox, Influenza, COVID, and a host of others, as well as the geography, history, zoology and disaster management required for context.

It assumes the reader has no science background and is aimed at those aged 12–99 but is also rich with information that will create common ground between health professionals, educators, students, parents, and politicians.

Allen Jones, MD was born in Nairobi, Kenya.

After completing a BSc in zoology and MSc in neuroscience, he received his MD from the University of British Columbia and went on to become a General Practitioner certified in Addiction Medicine. He started writing (and drawing) The Hidden Zoo Inside You in 2021 during quarantine after he realized the extent of misinformation regarding the coronavirus, and was further motivated by his passion for explaining and demystifying the language of medicine to his patients.

When not working on his book or with his patients, he enjoys rock climbing and traveling. He currently lives in Vancouver, BC.
