Foundational issues in statistical mechanics and the more general question of
how probability is to be understood in the context of physical theories are both
areas that have been neglected by philosophers of physics. This book fills an
important gap in the literature by providing the most systematic study to date
of how to interpret probabilistic assertions in the context of statistical
mechanics. The book will be of particular interest to philosophers of science,
physicists and mathematicians interested in foundational issues, and also to
historians of science.
