Hi, I'm completely lost in this discipline. Does anyone know of a good book with solved exercises and some examples, particularly on the 3 types of ensembles (microcanonical, canonical and large canonical), quantum mechanics statistical physics, and fermions/bosons gases? Thank you.

McQuarrie statistical mechanics may be of interest. It's a chemistry oriented statistical mechanics textbook so the chapters are, in general, much more applied. He explicitly treats monotomic and diatomic ideal gases, perfect crystals and a few other problems of interest.
