The list of books is structured along the line of a separation between handbooks and textbooks.

A textbook has some structure in it following some pedagogy of presenting the material, and at least has a set of exercises.

We deemed handbooks those that either say 'handbook', are collections of papers, and have no exercises.

Textbooks

Textbooks are organised by topic of interest, not so much for intended audience (graduate student, undergrad, etc). Listed in alphabetical order.

Computer Science

  • Hitzler, P., Kroetzsch, M. and Rudolph, S. Foundations of Semantic Web Technologies. Chapman & Hall/CRC, 2009.
    • For the computer scientist using ontologies, less so for the ontology developers to develop ontologies
  • Keet, CM. An Introduction to Ontology Engineering, 2018.
    • A comprehensive textbook, with exercises. Mainly for computer scientists, but also for ontology developers.
  • Pease, A. Ontology: a practical guide, 2011.
    • A comprehensive textbook for computer scientists, database developers, linguists and other professionals and students looking to add rigor to their computational systems. With lots of SUMO
  • Robinson, P.N., and Bauer, S. Introduction to Bio-Ontologies. Chapman & Hall/CRC Mathematical & Computational Biology, 2011.
    • Textbook aimed at bio-ontologies, but also including computing aspects (logic, algorithms)

Logic and reasoning

Philosophy

  • Arp, R. Building Ontologies with Basic Formal Ontology. MIT Press, 2015.
    • The material is pedagogically presented but does not contain exercises. The Introductory chapters are good for ontology in general. Subsequent chapters are good for understanding BFO in particular.
  • Coffey, P. Ontology or the Theory of Being. 2013.
    • For philosophers.
  • Effingham, N. An Introduction to Ontology. Polity/Wiley; 1 edition, 2013.
    • For philosophers.

Semantic Web

Note: there are several books on programming the semantic web and a developers guide to semantic web, but that was assumed out of scope (for now at least in the first search).

Handbooks

Most handbooks listed here have a few informal notes added to them, which are yet to be updated (ideally with a real book review).

General handbooks

On Ontologies

Ontological Engineering

Ontological Languages and Formalisms

Description Logics (DL)

Ontology and some subtopic or subject domain

These handbooks zoom in on more detail of one or more subtopics or domains of ontologies.

Natural Language

Semantic Web

Software Engineering
