Christopher P. Price
The late Christopher P. Price, M. A. (Oxon), a native of Wales, was a British solicitor who wrote several pieces in opposition to non-therapeutic child circumcision.
Christopher Price read law at Oxford University, qualified as a solicitor in 1971 and has practiced mainly in government service, with a particular interest in international law and human rights.
Price's brief (1996) to the Law Commission for England and Wales is credited with preventing the Commission from declaring the non-therapeutic circumcision of children to be lawful in the United kingdom.
