What is the difference between calorimetry and spectrophotometry?

In the study of chemical reactions, calorimetry deals with changes in heat (energy and enthalpy). Spectrophotometry is the measurement of the light absorbance or light transmittance to determine the concentration or color of a solution. The first one monitors the thermal processes, whereas the second one addresses the aspects of light and color.
