    The Speciation of Modern Homo Sapiens.Tim Crow (ed.) - 2004 - Oxford University Press UK.
    This is the first volume to address directly the question of the speciation of modern Homo sapiens. The subject raises profound questions about the nature of the species, our defining characteristic, and the brain changes and their genetic basis that make us distinct. The British Academy and the Academy of Medical Sciences have brought together experts from palaeontology, archaeology, linguistics, psychology, genetics and evolutionary theory to present evidence and theories at the cutting edge of our understanding of these issues.Palaeontological and (...)

    All sex differences in cognitive ability may be explained by an X-Y homologous gene determining degrees of cerebral asymmetry.T. J. Crow - 1996 - Behavioral and Brain Sciences 19 (2):249-250.
    Male superiority in mathematical ability (along with female superiority in verbal fluency) may reflect the operation of an X-Y homologous gene (the right-shift-factor) influencing the relative rates of development of the cerebral hemispheres. Alleles at the locus on the Y chromosome will be selected at a later mean age than alleles on the X, and only by females.

    Language and asymmetry versus the social brain – where are the testable predictions?T. J. Crow - 2004 - Behavioral and Brain Sciences 27 (6):857-858.
    I agree with Burns that an evolutionary theory is required, but I question his multifactorial premise. The arguments for an evolutionary theory are stronger, and one that is more precise than that presented by Burns has already been formulated. This theory, that schizophrenia is “the price that Homo sapiens pays for language,” (Crow 1997a; 2000b, 2004c), generates testable predictions absent from Burns' presentation.

    Paul Broca and the Evolutionary Genetics of Cerebral Asymmetry.Tim J. Crow - 2012 - Royal Institute of Philosophy Supplement 70:133-147.
    In 1873, within two years of the publication of The Descent of Man, Friedrich Max Mueller wrote: There is one difficulty which Mr Darwin has not sufficiently appreciated … There is between the whole animal kingdom on the one side, and man, even in his lowest state, on the other, a barrier which no animal has ever crossed, and that barrier is – Language … If anything has a right to the name of specific difference, it is language, as we (...)

    The cerebral torque and directional asymmetry for hand use are correlates of the capacity for language in homo sapiens.Timothy J. Crow - 2005 - Behavioral and Brain Sciences 28 (4):595-596.
    The claim of consistent hemispheric specialisations across classes of chordates is undermined by the absence of population-based directional asymmetry of paw/hand use in rodents and primates. No homologue of the cerebral torque from right frontal to left occipital has been established in a nonhuman species. The null hypothesis that the torque is the sapiens-specific neural basis of language has not been disproved.
