RE: Books on ontology engineering and OWL

The handbook is a good collection of independently written articles on ontologies and inference in general, and there may be an article or two about OWL and patterns etc.  It is great for that.

IHMO, it does not meet Jose's stated need very well.

You can try Handbook on Ontologies. As far as I know, a brand new version should be available soon.
