Statistical thermodynamics deals with the relationships between the probability, partition functions and the thermodynamic properties. The methods of statistical thermodynamics were first developed by Boltzmann (Germany), and Gibbs (USA). With the development of the methods of quantum theory some modifications in Boltzmann's original ideas were introduced by Bose (Indian physicist) and Einstein (German physicist), and Fermi (Italian physicist) and Dirac (English physicist).
