How the Hidden Power of Heat Makes Us Stronger
Book •
In Hotwired, Bill Gifford reveals how humans evolved to thrive in heat and how rediscovering this ability through saunas, heat therapy, and exposure can make us stronger, healthier, and happier.

Drawing on evolutionary biology, physiology, and personal challenges like 100-mile bike rides in Texas heat and Finnish saunas, he shows heat's benefits for longevity, mental health, and adapting to a warming world.

The book combines science, stories, and practical insights to reframe heat as a tool rather than a threat.
