The term "statistical mechanics" was coined by the American mathematical physicist J. Willard Gibbs in 1884. "Probabilistic mechanics" might today seem a more appropriate term, but "statistical mechanics" is firmly entrenched. Shortly before his death, Gibbs published in 1902 Elementary Principles in Statistical Mechanics, a book which formalized statistical mechanics as a fully general approach to address all mechanical systems—macroscopic or microscopic, gaseous or non-gaseous. Gibbs' methods were initially derived in the framework classical mechanics, however they were of such generality that they were found to adapt easily to the later quantum mechanics, and still form the foundation of statistical mechanics to this day.

1884年，美国数学物理学家约西亚·威拉德·吉布斯首创了“统计力学”一词。在今天看来，“概率力学”似乎是一个更合适的术语，但“统计力学”却根深蒂固。在吉布斯去世前不久，他于1902年<s>在《统计力学》出版了《基本原理》</s><font color='red'>《统计力学的基本原理Elementary Principles in Statistical Mechanics》</font>一书，这本书正式确定了统计力学是解决所有力学系统——宏观的或微观的、气态的或非气态的——的一种完全通用的方法。吉布斯的方法最初是在经典力学的框架下产生的，然而<s>它们</s><font color='red'>这些方法</font>是如此的普遍，以至于人们发现它们很容易适应后来的量子力学，直到今天仍然是统计力学的基础。
