Color management is the practical application of the science of color perception and reproduction to make it possible to predict and previsualize how colors will be reproduced using differing mediums such as fabric and photographic dyes, CRT and LCD computer screens, and various types of printing.
Which Color Space Profiles to use ?

One of the most common questions asked by photographers is, “Which working space profile should I choose when converting RAW files, when scanning, or when setting up my digital camera?” Working space profiles (or editing space profiles) are generally embedded inside files, such as TIFFs, PSDs, and JPEGs. If you shoot in RAW mode, the working space profile setting (usually sRGB or Adobe RGB [1998]) that you can often choose in your digital camera, has no real meaning until you export your file and choose a working space profile using RAW processing software.

“The human eye senses this spectrum using a combination of rod and cone cells for vision. Rod cells are better for low-light vision, but can only sense the intensity of light, whereas while cone cells can also discern color, they function best in bright light.

“Color management” is a process where the color characteristics for every device in the imaging chain is known precisely and utilized to better predict and control color reproduction. For digital photography, this imaging chain usually starts with the camera and concludes with the final print, and may include a display device in between.”

“White balance (WB) is the process of removing unrealistic color casts, so that objects which appear white in person are rendered white in your photo. Proper camera white balance has to take into account the “color temperature” of a light source, which refers to the relative warmth or coolness of white light.”

“For a correct exposure you want all the channels in all parts of the photo to be below the point they max out and loose detail. As a starting point you need to set the color balance of the camera to match the color of the light so when a bright white object is photographed all three channels will max out at exactly the same rate.”
