"Phylip Peltier is a unique pioneer in
an area where few professionals tread with comfort.
Deliberately inflicted burns to children are one of the
more disturbing and unbelievable manifestations of child
abuse. They are also difficult to investigate, present
evidentially in court and prove. His protocol for bath
scald investigations is reproduced in both editions of
our Textbook of Child Abuse and Neglect - A
Practitioners Handbook (Hobbs, Hanks & Wynne, Churchill
Livingstone). We have found it most valuable and simple
to use. He has single handedly done a great deal to
stimulate effective and scientifically based practice in
this demanding area".
Dr Christopher Hobbs, Consultant
Pediatrician, St James's University Hospital,
