Can anyone recommend a good up-to-date Semantic Web book? I've looked online and books seem to fall into one of two categories:
- Books that sell the idea of the semantic web and talk about a lot of the technologies but don't actually teach you how to program them. Semantic Web: Crafting Infrastructure for Agency: I'm looking at you.
- Books the are written for 1337 ontology designers who are going to be spending a month creating a huge data model
To make things worse, a lot of the books seem to be years out of date- a bad thing considering the speed at which the field is evolving. I see an Amazon that there are a couple new XML books coming out in April but it'd seem that they both fall into the categories I mentioned above.
Technologies I'm interested in: RDF (non-ugly XML serializations), SPARQL, GDRRL, backend technologies to process RDF, RDF Schema...
