review text: The book is the second volume of the two volume set ``Lectures on QCD'' (Part 1: Foundations, cf. Zbl 0876.00023) and is devoted to the applications of QCD to the phenomenology of strong interactions. It consists of six lectures. The lecture by Nachtmann concerns various ideas on the nonperturbative vacuum structure in QCD and the way it can enter the picture for high energy soft hadronic reactions. The perturbative QCD is the main topic of Dikshitzer's lecture where some details of perturbative calculations are nicely explained. The properties of quark-gluon plasma are carefully discussed in the lecture by Satz. The following chapter by Jaffe provides an introduction to polarization effects in deep inelastic processes. The twist, chirality and transversity dependence of a variety of high energy processes sensitive to the quark and gluon substructure of hadrons is studied there. The status of unpolarised and polarised deep inelastic scattering of electrons and muons from fixed hydrogen and deuterium targets is discussed in detail in the lecture by Rith. The last chapter, by Levy, is devoted to low-\(x\) physics. The book, together with the first volume, gives a good overview of the current status of strong interactions theory. The articles of this volume will not be indexed individually.
