It was widely recommended so I got it. I read it from cover to cover, but perhaps 20 percent was useful for me since I work under Linux. But that 20 percent was essential. In particular, it addresses most of the questions a beginner might have, but you sometimes have to work to find relevant material. I still find the glossary helpful in deciphering acronyms, and the appendix on the structure of a profile was helpful. > I have picked up a few more books about colormanagment now, and > hopefully they would enlighten me about the deeper stuff.
