Some Comments on Boltzmann-Gibbs Statistical Mechanics

A nonexhaustive review is presented of the limits of the impressive and vastly known success of Boltzmann-Gibbs statistics and normal thermodynamics. These limits naturally open the door for the research of generalized formalisms that could enlarge the domain of validity of standard statistical mechanics and thermodynamics. A possible such generalization (recently proposed by the author) is commented along this perspective.
