He has served as the Editor-in-Chief of Brill Publishers' book series Studies in Medieval and Reformation Traditions from 2000-2020 and was succeeded by Christopher Ocker in June 2020.

[2] Gow's early work focused on the Red Jews and the German tales of the apocalyptic threat they supposedly presented.

[citation needed] Gow and his research team have been studying and translating an early modern treatise on witch hunting by Johannes Tinctor, Invectives Against the Sect of Waldensians.

This book discusses the origin of many of our contemporary ideas about witchcraft, including flying on brooms and casting spells.

[5] Gow and his co-researchers have translated and edited a volume titled The Arras Witch Treatises: Johann Tinctor's Invectives contre la secte de vauderie and the Recollectio casus, status et condicionis Valdensium ydolatrarum by the Anonymous of Arras (1460), co-introduced, co-edited and co-translated with Robert Desjardins and François Pageau, which was published in 2016 by Penn State University Press in the series 'Magic in History'.
