媒体推荐“本书正是我这些年一直期待的，它的出版将帮助更多人真正理解语义网。我相信它对于语义网社区的作用，就像《Java编程思想》之于Java社区。”
——HenryStory，Sun公司语义网专家
“本书的两位作者都是语义网的权威，一个来自学界，一个来自业界，堪称完美组合。他们使原本晦涩难懂的语义网和相关的知识表示标准变得生动易懂。强烈推荐。”
——MarkA．Musen，斯坦福大学教授，著名开源语义网平台Prot6g6项目负责人
“Hendler和Allemang的这本书正是我们一直在寻找的。以前的同类图书对做实际工作的人帮助甚微，而这本书可读性很强，例子丰富而且简单易懂。我推荐大家都去买这本书。”
——DavidMcComb
编辑推荐由Web之父TimJohnBertlers-Lee提出的语义网标志着又一场革命，它要大大提升万维网，为其内容添加语义，使其成为人们与计算机系统共享数据、信息和知识的更为强大的通用媒介。随着Web2．O和云计算等概念的不断深入人心。语义网的思想和技术已经逐渐融入到各种主流的软件（如Oracle、Photostlop）和Web应用（如社区网站、搜索）中。
但是，长期以来，语义网方面的资料严重缺乏，除了标准规范本身之外，相关的图书基本上只是触及皮毛，缺乏实战指导。《实用语义网RDFS与OWL高效建模》(英文版)填补了这一空白。它由两位语义网世界级权威合作撰写。已经成为此领域不可或缺的权威著作。书中针对程序员和领域专家。在透彻而详细地讲述了语义网及其核心技术（RDFS和OW[．）的基础知识之后。提供了大量解决实际问题的方案、实例、技巧和经验。阅读《实用语义网RDFS与OWL高效建模》(英文版)之后，读者可以大大加深对语义网的理解。充满自信地面对今天和未来的技术挑战。

序言In 2003, when the World Wide Web Consortium was working toward the ratifi-cation of the Recommendations for the Semantic Web languages RDF, RDFS, andOWL, we realized that there was a need for an industrial-level introductorycourse in these technologies. The standards were technically sound, but, as istypically the case with standards documents, they were written with technicalcompleteness in mind rather than education. We realized that for this technol-ogy to take off, people other than mathematicians and logicians would haveto learn the basics of semantic modeling.
Toward that end, we started a collaboration to create a series of trainingsaimed not at university students or technologists but at Web developers whowere practitioners in some other field. In short, we needed to get the SemanticWeb out of the hands of the logicians and Web technologists, whose job hadbeen to build a consistent and robust infrastructure, and into the hands of thepractitioners who were to build the Semantic Web. The Web didn't grow tothe size it is today through the efforts of only HTML designers, nor would theSemantic Web grow as a result of only logicians' efforts.
After a year or so of offering training to a variety of audiences, we delivered atraining course at the National Agriculture Library of the U.S. Department ofAgriculture. Present for this training were a wide variety of practitioners inmany fields, including health care, finance, engineering, national intelligence,and enterprise architecture. The unique synergy of these varied practitionersresulted in a dynamic four days of investigation into the power and subtlety ofsemantic modeling. Although the practitioners in the room were innovativeand intelligent, we found that even for these early adopters, some of the newways of thinking required for modeling in a World Wide Web context weretoo subtle to master after just a one-week course. One participant had registeredfor the course multiple times, insisting that something else "clicked" each timeshe went through the exercises.
This is when we realized that although the course was doing a good job ofdisseminating the information and skills for the Semantic Web, another, morearchival resource was needed. We had to create something that students couldwork with on their own and could consult when they had questions. Thiswas the point at which the idea of a book on modeling in the Semantic Webwas conceived. We realized that the readership needed to include a wide varietyof people from a number of fields, not just programmers or Web application developers but all the people from different fields who were struggling to understand how to use the new Web languages.
