He is the author of Filling the Void: Emotion, Capitalism and Social Media (Repeater, 2017).
Reviews
"Gilroy-Ware goes deep to explain widespread propagation of and popular susceptibility to all kinds of dangerous nonsense today. This is an essential contribution to understanding our current conjuncture."
"Gilroy-Ware evaluates why expanded access to information has instead led to a glut of disinformation and mistrust just when we need consensus on matters of grave import."
"Expansive, interesting and, for a book that engages with some pretty complex ideas, surprisingly accessible. If you wanted to understand how capitalism operates today, particularly at an ideological level, it would be a good place to start."
