John Wiley & Sons writes:

In the fifteen years since the first edition of Principles of Color Technology, basic theory has remained the same, but in many cases practice has become considerably more automated. The second edition of this standard work covers all the major advances in color applied to the use of colorants in the industrial and creative production of colored material.

Billmeyer and Saltzman have substantially realigned their emphases in accordance with these new developments, including coverage of:
- Metamerism
- Non-color problems—quality control, techniques of sampling and sample preparation, and applications of simple statistics.
- Methods for instrument selection.

Fundamentals—the role of light, descriptions of color in objective, numerical terms, and practical industrial applications of color technology—are covered in the same methodical manner that has made Principles of Color Technology such an important information source for both industry and academics. Current updated material and a refinement of the general presentation make this second edition even more indispensable to the world of color technology.
