<p><b>BUG FIXES</b></p>
<ul>
<li>
employment was misspelled as empoyment. Caught by Danilo Freire (<a href="https://github.com/trinker/wakefield/issues/2">issue #2</a>).</li>
</ul>
<p><b>NEW FEATURES</b></p>
<ul>
<li><p>r_list & r_data_frame now add a suffix to repeat variable names in a
sensible way. The separator is controlled by rep.sep. Suggested by
Ananda Mahto. See <a href="https://github.com/trinker/wakefield/issues/1">issue #1</a> for details.</p></li>
<li><p>r_list and r_data_frame can utilize r_series and r_dummy to produce
series of variables. Suggested by Ananda Mahto. See <a href="https://github.com/trinker/wakefield/issues/1">issue #1</a> for details.</p></li>
<li><p>r_series added to produce a series of grouped data. This is useful for
simulating repeated measures or survey questions. Suggested by Ananda Mahto.

Jim Wakefield oral history recording
An audio recording of an oral history of Jim Wakefield, Meteorologist and head of the Portland office of the National Weather Service, on the Vancouver tornado of 1972. The recording starts in the middle of the interview and ends before the interview is over. In the interview, Wakefield and the interviewer talk about the tornado that happened in Vancouver and their opinions on the possible climate change over the last hundred years. They cover topics such as having the buildings secured, the level of preparedness in the northwest as in the midwest, and whether people were able to take pictures of the tornado. Wakefield had put out a notice in the 'Columbian' asking for people to submit pictures of the storm, but he was not very hopeful. There is a lot of background noise throughout the entire recording including telephones ringing, the tapping of a typewriter, and an airplane flying overhead. Sometimes it is hard to discern what the speakers are saying
Medicine and society in Wakefield and Huddersfield, 1780-1870
The thesis examines the formation and evolution of medical
provisions in Wakefield and Huddersfield between circa 1780 and
1870. The survey covers 'institutional' facilities, namely hospital and dispensary provisions and Poor Law medical services,
friendly society facilities for the sick and the development of
'fringe' or 'peripheral' medical practices. The thesis also
discusses the structural, professional and social development of
medical communities in the two towns.
A wide range of source material was utilised, to include
Poor Law material (pre- and post-1834), the records of friendly
societies and medical charities census returns, newspapers, trade
and medical directories and parliamentary reports and returns.
The use of such a combination of material gives a better indication
of the range of facilities available and their relative importance.
It will be suggested that the emphasis medical historians have
put on institutional provisions has been misplaced. The importance
of previously neglected options, the friendly society and 'peripheral'
forms of treatment, will be stressed. Leading on from this,
it is possible to suggest that self-help forms of medical relief
(compared with those 'provided' by the wealthy classes for the poor)
were of greater significance-than has previously been assumed.
An attempt has been made to place the development of medical
services against the backdrop of the communities that they evolved in.
The growth of institutional provisions and the progress of self-help
forms are linked to the organisation of the two communities, their
class structure and social, civic and economic developments. The
leading role of laymen in creating a demand for, and in the setting
up and evolution of, medical provisions has also been stressed.
It is hoped an analysis of these factors will lead to a clearer
understanding of how and why medical facilities developed-as they
did, and to a greater insight into the relationships between medicine
and society
