Recommendations for Statistical Mechanics book

Is anyone aware of any recent text that summarises the research and arguments on second law of thermodynamics and also on the foundations of statistical mechanics and thermodynamics (equilibrium and non equilibrium) and names of any present prominent professors working in the same fields so that I can look up relevant material. The only big name I found last was Ilya Prigogine, any references on any good work continuing Prigogine?

    Hi excitedaboutphysics - we only allow a specific, limited set of book recommendations, and statistical mechanics/thermodynamics is already covered. – David Z Jan 11 '13 at 20:26
