Overview
This two-book paperback set pairs Wim Hof's own account of the method that made him famous with Scott Carney's outsider investigation into whether it actually works. Together they offer a rounded look at cold exposure, breathwork and resilience training - part manifesto, part myth-busting reportage - ideal for readers curious about wellness trends backed by real testing rather than hype.

About the Books
The Wim Hof Method is the personal manifesto of Dutch athlete and multiple Guinness World Record holder Wim Hof, known worldwide as "The Iceman" for feats including climbing Kilimanjaro in shorts and running a barefoot half-marathon in the Arctic Circle. In this Sunday Times bestseller, Hof shares his life story and the three-pillar approach - Cold, Breathing and Mindset - refined over four decades and studied by scientists worldwide. The paperback lays out practical breathing exercises and cold exposure guidance designed to build resilience, energy and calm. Its companion, What Doesn't Kill Us, comes from the opposite direction: journalist Scott Carney's four-year investigation into Hof's claims. What began as scepticism after Carney spotted a photo of a man sitting on a glacier in his underwear turned into a journey through Polish farmhouses, Californian underwater weight training and Kilimanjaro itself, as Carney tested the science behind cold exposure and breathwork himself. A New York Times bestseller and Book of the Year pick for The Times and Evening Standard, it reads as gripping narrative non-fiction while quietly interrogating whether the method truly unlocks lost evolutionary strength.

• Two complementary perspectives in one set - Hof's first-person method plus Carney's independent investigation.
• Step-by-step breathing and cold exposure techniques straight from the source.
• An engaging, journalistic narrative that tests the claims rather than simply repeating them.
• Both titles are Sunday Times / New York Times bestsellers with strong review credentials.
• Compact paperback format, easy to read side by side or as standalone titles.
• A thoughtful gift set for anyone interested in wellness, breathwork or cold therapy.
